Answer:

18 Blue Marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let M be the number of blue marbles that Mike has.

From the information from the question, we can deduce:

18M = 144 blue marbles

Now we solve for M to find the number of blue marbles that Mark has.

M = 144 ÷ 18

= 8 Blue Marbles

Mike has 8 marbles. Given that Tom has 144 marbles and that is 18 times the amount Mike has, we can set up an equation where m represents the amount of marbles Mike has:

m = 144 / 18

An equation for how many marbles Tom has would be:

t = 18m

144 / 18 gives us 8. For that reason, we know that Mike has 8 marbles.

Mike has 8 blue marbles.
