Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

so there are 8 marbles in the bag....1/3 red, 1/4 green, 1/6 blue....rest are yellow

red ones.....1/3(8) = 8/3 = 2 2/3 are red

green ones....1/4(8) = 8/4 = 2 are green

blue ones......1/6(8) = 8/6 = 1 1/3 are blue

2 2/3 + 2 + 1 1/3 = 6 marbles are not yellow.......that leaves you with 2 yellow marbles
