Answer:

4 red marbles and 6 blue marbles is the correct answwer

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

A.) 4 red marbles and 6 blue marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

If you times 2 x 2 then you will get 4

If you times 3 x 2 then you will get 6

And since the ratio is red : blue

2 : 3 is equivalent to 4 : 6

Just like  [tex]\frac{2}{3} = \frac{4}{6}[/tex] they are the same thing.

if you were to do a fraction graph, 2 of the 3 [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] bars would be the same length of 4 [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] bars:
