  • [tex] \frac{red}{blue} = \frac{36}{64} ^{(2} = \frac{18}{32} ^{(2} = \frac{9}{16} [/tex]
    So the correct answer is B
    Have a nice day!!! ^^
  • Answer=B

    36 red marbles
    64 blue marbles

    red marbles:blue marbles
    36:64
    now lets simplify the ratio by dividing both numbers by 2
    18:32
    continue simplifying by dividing both sides by 2 again...
    9:16

    The ratio of red to blue marbles is 9:16
