Respuesta :

Answer:

3 to 7

Step-by-step explanation:

blue to red

6 to 14

Divide each side by 2

6/2 to 14/2

3 to 7

Answer:

The ratio would be 6:10 or 6/10 ( 3/5) or 0.6.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Why?  A ratio is comparing two numbers with a fraction, colon or decimal or percent.

Well there are 6 blue marbles out of the 35 colored marbles. And there are 10 clear marbles.

The question is asking for a blue/clear. It is easy to get confused and put clear/blue. So that is why 6:10 is the ratio.
