Mr Lim has a bag with some marbles colored red,yellow, green, blue and white the marbles are identical in number if there are 40 marbles in the bag how many marbles of each color are in the bag

1 answer

Since the marbles are identical in number, each color must have an equal number of marbles.

Therefore, if there are 40 marbles in the bag, and each color has the same number of marbles, then the number of marbles of each color in the bag can be found by dividing 40 by the number of colors (5 colors in this case).

40 รท 5 = 8

Therefore, there are 8 marbles of each color in the bag.
