Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: In a bowl of fruit, there are green grapes and black grapes in the ratio of [tex]3:4[/tex] in there are [tex]24[/tex] green grapes.

To Find: how many black grapes are there.

Solution:

The ratio of green grapes and black grapes is [tex]3:4[/tex]

Let the number of green grapes in bowl be [tex]=3\text{x}[/tex]

Therefore

Number of black grapes are [tex]=4\text{x}[/tex]

now,

Number of green grapes are [tex]=24[/tex]

[tex]3\text{x}=24[/tex]

[tex]\text{x}=8[/tex]

Number of black grapes are [tex]=4\text{x}[/tex]

                                               [tex]4\times8[/tex]

                                               [tex]32[/tex]

hence the total number of black grapes in bowl of fruit is [tex]32[/tex].
