Plz ! ms. hernandez and her twins are in front of a gumball machine that contains red, blue and purple gumballs. nine gumballs are purple, 25% of the gumballs are red, and the remaining 60% are blue. how many of the gumballs are red and how many are blue? explain how you know your answer is correct.

Red Gumballs = 15

Blue Gumballs = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of gumballs = x

Given, Red Gumballs = 25% of x

Blue Gumballs = 60% of x

So, there must be number of Purple Gumballs= 100% - (60% + 25%) = 15%

⇒ 15% of x = 9

⇒

∴ Red Gumballs = 25% of 60 = 15

and Blue Gumballs = 60% of 60 = 36

- 70

this is the answer for you hope it
