Respuesta :
There are 40 gumballs. I set up an equation to find this answer: 16 = .4x. When I solved this, I got the answer 40.
16/X = 40/100
same as this
you can also figure out how many blue are 10% of the bag by dividing both sides by 4
16/x / 4 = 40/100 / 4
4/x = 10/100
and if 4 gumballs is 10 % then you just need to multiply them both by 10 to get 100%
