Question:

A bag contains twice as many red marbles as blue marbles, and the number of blue marbles is 88% of the number of green marbles. If g represents the number of green marbles, which of the following expressions represents the total number of marbles in the bag?

A 3.64g.
explanation

There are twice as many red marbles as blue marbles, so (red) = 2(blue).
The number of blue marbles is 88% of the number of green marbles, so (blue) = 0.88g.
Substitute this expression for blue marbles in the one above:
(red) = 2(0.88g)
(red) = 1.76g
The total number of marbles is equal to red plus blue plus green:
(red) + (blue) + 1g
1.76g + 0.88g + 1g = 3.64g
