Hello!
We've been given enough information to solve this question! We know that there are a total of 250 marbles in the bag, and that 12% are blue and 14% are red, and the rest are white.
To calculate how many marbles are red and blue, we must first convert the percentages to decimals by dividing them by 100, and then we'll multiply the decimals by 250 marbles.
I know, that's probably a lot to take in! :D
12% ÷ 100 = 0.12
0.12 × 250 = 30
This means that 30 marbles were red.
14% ÷ 100 = 0.14
0.14 × 250 = 35
This means that 35 marbles were blue.
Final Answer:
30 marbles were red, 35 marbles were blue, and the rest were white.
Good Day!
