The ratio of red starburst to yellow starburst in the bag is 8 to 3. There are 40 red starburst in the bag, how many are yellow?

Respuesta :

8 red to every 3 yellow. we know that 40 are red. in order to get 40 from 8, we have to multiply by 5. therefore we know we have to multiply 3 by 5. 3 times 5 is 15. therefore, there are 15 yellow!! hope this helps :)
