Answer 1

The ratio of Tocarre to Anesia's glitter markers is 2:3, which means for every 2 glitter markers Tocarre has, Anesia has 3 glitter markers.

Let's assume Tocarre has 2x glitter markers.
And Anesia has 3x glitter markers.

The total number of glitter markers Tocarre and Anesia have is 30.
So we have the equation 2x + 3x = 30.
Combining like terms, we get 5x = 30.
Dividing both sides by 5, we get x = 6.

This means Anesia has 3 * 6 = 18 glitter markers.

Therefore, Anesia has 18 glitter markers.
