Answer:
well 1/10 are blue, 5/10 are red, and 4/10 are yellow.
1/10 blue
5/10 red
4/10 yellow
I don’t really know how to answer this question but I hope me converting the ratios helps 🙂
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: 1/10 blue
1/2 red
2/5 yellow
First, make it so that each if their whole (denominator, or the right side) is equal.
We already know that 2 and 5 are common factors of 10, so we get them to the number 10 by equal multiplication.
1/10 – blue
1/2(5) = 5/10 – red
2/5(2) = 4/10 – yellow
Now just take their numbers in order.
