A marble jar has twice as many blue marbles as red marbles 16 more green marbles and blue marbles and 10 few were white marbles and red marbles

Question

The jar has a total of 150 marbles

Answer 1

X is the number of red marbles.

 

Blue Marbles = 2x

 

Green Marbles = 2x + 16

 

White = X - 10

 

X + 2x + 2x+16 + x - 10 = 150

6x +6 = 150

6x = 144

X = 24

 

24 red marbles

48 blue marbles

64 green marbles

14 white marbles

150 total
