A box contains \( 120 \) counters. The counters are red or blue. \( \frac{3}{5} \) of the counters are red. How many red counters are there?
\( 72 \)
Because it is more than a half And if it was half the answer would’ve been 60 so there is only one answer more than 60 which is 72.

Because the answer can be found by setting the question out as a fraction 3/5ths x 120/1 5 is the largest denominator it goes into 120 24 times giving a fraction of 3/1 × 24/1 Therefore the New denominator cancel each other out and 3 x 24 = 72 red counters.
