Answer 1

wich one is the answer

Answer 2

is it 21

Answer 3

To find the missing number in the ratio table, we need to determine the relationship between the number of red M&Ms and the number of blue M&Ms. We are told that for every 3 red M&Ms, there are 2 blue M&Ms.

Using this information, we can complete the ratio table as follows:

Blue M&Ms Red M&Ms
2 3
4 6
8 ?
12 18

To find the missing number, we can set up a proportion:

2/3 = x/8

Cross multiplying, we get:

3x = 16

Dividing both sides by 3, we find:

x = 16/3

Therefore, the missing number in the table is approximately 5.33. However, since we are dealing with whole numbers in the M&M ratio, we cannot have a fraction of an M&M. Thus, there is no whole number that can be used to complete the ratio table accurately.

Therefore, none of the options provided (9, 12, or 15) is correct.

Answer 4

None of the options provided (9, 12, or 15) is the correct answer.

Answer 5
