There are white, blue, and red boats in a marina. five-sixths of the boats in the marina are white, 2/5 of the remaining boats are blue, and the rest are red. if there are 12 red boats, how many boats are in the marina?

There are 120 boats in marina.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the total number of boats in the marina.

As per given , Number of white boats =

Since , Number of red boats = 12

Therefore,

Hence, there are 120 boats in marina.

3/4 ÷ 3/4

step-by-step explanation:

basically divide any proper fraction with itself to fit the criteria.

so if we are using 3/4, then:

3/4 ÷ 3/4 = 1

so 1 is the quotient.

and the numerators for both these fractions is 3.   and if we divide the numerators:

3 ÷ 3 = 1

we see that quotient is equal to our original quotient as well.
