Vie wants to make friendship bracelets to sell. She has yellow, blue, and orange beads. She wants each bracelet to have a ratio of 310 blue and 110 yellow. What would be the remaining ratio of orange beads for each bracelet? Remember to simplify your ratio/fraction.(1 point)
To find the ratio of orange beads for each bracelet, we need to subtract the number of blue and yellow beads from the total number of beads.
The ratio of blue beads is 310, while the ratio of yellow beads is 110. So, the total ratio of blue and yellow beads is 310 + 110 = 420.
Since the total ratio of all beads is 420, we can find the ratio of orange beads by subtracting 420 from the total number of beads.
Let's say the total number of beads is x. Then,
x - 420 = ratio of orange beads.
To simplify this fraction, we note that any common factors between the numerator and denominator cancel each other out.
For example, if the total number of beads is 840, the ratio of orange beads would be (840-420) / 840 = 420/840. We can divide both numerator and denominator by 420 to simplify the fraction.
Thus, the final ratio of orange beads for each bracelet is 1:2.
