Amarine aquarium has a small tank and a large tank, each containing only red and blue fish. in each tank, the ratio of red fish to blue fish is 333 to 444. the ratio of fish in the large tank to fish in the small tank is 464646 to 555. what is the ratio of blue fish in the small tank to red fish in the large tank?

Ratio of blue fish in the small tank to the red fish in large tank is 10 : 6279

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of red fish and blue fish in the large tank are x and y respectively.

Similarly ratio of red fish and blue fish in the small tank are x' and y' respectively.

Since in each tank ratio of the red fish to blue fish is 333 : 444

That means x : y = 333 : 444

Or

⇒

⇒ y = --------(1)

Similarly x' : y' = 333 : 444

⇒

⇒

⇒ x' = ------(2)

Ratio of the fish in large tank to the fish in small tank is 464646 : 555

So (x + y) : (x' + y') = 464646 : 555

Now we replace the values of x and y' from equation (1) and equation (2)

Therefore, ratio of blue fish in the small tank to the red fish in large tank is 10 : 6279
