Consider a bag containing exclusively red and white marbles, distributed following the ratio:

Number of red marbles : Number of white marbles = 1 : 5


Rewrite the ratio with the actual number of marbles of each colour in the bag if it contains exactly 54 marbles.
Answered by mathhelper
ratio is 1 : 5 or x : 5x

x + 5x = 54
6x = 54
x = 9

ratio of red : white is 9:45
