Each marble bag sold by Diane's Marble Company contains 8 purple marbles for every 5 yellow marbles. If a bag has 30 yellow marbles, how many purple marbles does it contain?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Same approach as before (men and women problem). Purple to Yellow ratio is 8/5. So, Purple / Yellow = 8/5 Calculate purple based on yellow.

OpenStudy (trent):

ok it would be 48 purple
