To find the percentage of red, first divide the number of red marbles by the total number of marbles\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"10%2F260\"=0.0385\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now multiply by 100 to convert the decimal number to a percentage\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "0.0385*100=3.85%\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So the percentage of red marbles in the bag is 3.85%
\n" ); document.write( "
