Explanation:

Problem 5
Part a

Step1: Find total parts in ratio

The ratio of spend to save is \( 3:2 \), so total parts \( = 3 + 2 = 5 \).

Step2: Find value of one part

Diego has \( \$100 \), so one part \( = \frac{100}{5} = 20 \).

Step3: Calculate money spent

Money spent is \( 3 \) parts, so \( 3 \times 20 = 60 \).

Step1: Use total parts and one part value

From part a, total parts \( = 5 \), one part \( = 20 \).

Step2: Calculate money saved

Money saved is \( 2 \) parts, so \( 2 \times 20 = 40 \).

Step1: Find total parts in ratio

Ratio of red to blue marbles is \( 4:1 \), total parts \( = 4 + 1 = 5 \).

Step2: Find value of one part

Total marbles \( = 110 \), so one part \( = \frac{110}{5} = 22 \).

Step3: Calculate red marbles

Red marbles are \( 4 \) parts, so \( 4 \times 22 = 88 \).

Answer:

\( \$60 \)
