Answer 5

You're close! Let me try to help.

The ratio of red peppers to green peppers is 3:4. This means that for every 3 red peppers, there are 4 green peppers.

If the truck contains 120 green peppers, we can use this ratio to find the number of red peppers.

We can start by setting up a proportion. Let x be the number of red peppers in the truck:

3/4 = x/120

To solve for x, we can cross-multiply:

4x = 3 * 120

4x = 360

x = 90

Therefore, there are 90 red peppers in the truck.
