The ratio between the number of red and green marbles in a box is 3:7. How many marbles are in the box if there are 20 fewer red marbles than green marbles? I need this ASAP!

50 marbles

Step-by-step explanation: The difference between the ratio of the red and green marbles is 4 units and the number value is 20 so its safe to say that 4 units is equal to 20 and thus one unit is 5 and because of the fact that there is a total of 10 units of marbles in the box according to the ratio, just multiply 5 and 10 which you get 50.

4 units = 20

1 unit = 20÷4 = 5

Total = 10 units

10 unit = 5 ×10 = 50

Ans : 50 marbles

omg what happend to your question? if you could edit this question i can

step-by-step explanation:

2 & 7

step-by-step explanation:

he climbs 300 ft/hr at a constant rate. the peak is at 1,500 ft.

when going up, he reaches 600 ft in 2 hours. remember, that he is going in a constant rate. divide 600 with 300:

600/300 = 2

assuming that he takes the same route back (meaning that it's a 1500 ft route back, you can solve.

note also that you are solving when he gets back to 600 ft after he reaches the peak.

first, find the amount of hours it takes to get up the peak. divide the total amount (1500), with the ft/her (300) to get the amount of hours (x):

1500/300 = x

x = 5

it takes jamie 5 hours to get up. now, he is returning down, and reaches 600 (his current destination). remember that he climbs at a constant 300 ft/hr. divide 600 with 300:

600/300 = x

x = 2

now add the two numbers together.

x = 5 + 2 = 7

jamie takes 7 hours to go up the mountain and reach his current position when descending.

(total amount/constant rate) = (time).

remember that it is a constant rate, so in total, when he gets back down the mountain, it will take the same amount of time as when he goes up. the total amount for the round trip is: 5 + 5 = 10.
