A produce store offers red and green apples. In one morning they sold 60 apples total. If 18 of the apples they sold were red, what is the ratio of green apples sold to red apples sold?

7:3

Step-by-step explanation:

60 apples sold

18 were red

? were green

60-18=42

UN simplified ratio= 42red:18green

simplified ratio= 7:3 bc 42:18 divided by 6 is 7:3

7:3

Step-by-step explanation:

If the store sold 60 apples total and 18 of them are red to find the ratio subtract 18 from 60. You will then get 42:18 as the ratio. That can be simplified by dividing 42 and 18 by 2. Then your new ratio will be 21:9. That can be simplified even more by dividing 21 and 9 by 3. Now you have your final answer 7:3. For every 7 green apples sold 3 red apples will be sold. I hope that helped. :)
