Respuesta :

8 is the total number of markers in the bag. There are 3 out of 8 that are red. 8-3=5 so there are 5 out of 8 markers that are not red and that are other colors - or 5/8 are other colors.

Answer:

[tex]\frac{5A}{8}[/tex]  are the other color markers in the bag.

Step-by-step explanation:

A bag contains A markers, [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] of which are red.

Number of red markers = [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] of A

                                       = [tex]\frac{3A}{8}[/tex]

Now number of  other color markers  in the bag  = Total markers - number of red markers

Number of other markers = A - [tex]\frac{3A}{8}[/tex]

                                           = [tex]\frac{8A-3A}{8}[/tex]

                                           = [tex]\frac{5A}{8}[/tex]

therefore, [tex]\frac{5A}{8}[/tex]  are the other color markers in the bag.
