Given that the ratio of glitter markers between Toccare and Anesia is 2:3, we can assign variables to represent their quantities. Let's say T represents the number of glitter markers Toccare has and A represents the number of glitter markers Anesia has.
According to the ratio, we have the equation: T/A = 2/3.
Additionally, we know that the total number of glitter markers they have is 30, so we have the equation: T + A = 30.
To solve this system of equations, we can first multiply both sides of the first equation by 3A: 3AT/A = 2/3 * 3A.
This simplifies to: 3T = 2A.
Now we can substitute this expression for 3T in the second equation: 3T + A = 30.
Substituting 2A for 3T gives us: 2A + A = 30.
Combining like terms, we have: 3A = 30.
Dividing both sides of the equation by 3, we find: A = 10.
Therefore, Anesia has 10 glitter markers.
Toccare and anesia have glitter markers in a ratio of 2:3 they have a total of 30 glitter markers how many glitter markers does anesia have
