Layala and Zahra have 2700 marbles in the ratio of 2:7. How many marbles Zahra must have gave away so that they both would have the same number of marbles?

1500

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Total number of marbles held by Layala and Zahra = 2700

Ratio = 2 : 7

Layala's share of marbles : (2 / (2+7)) * 2700

= 2/9 * 2700

= 600

Zahra's share of marble : (7 / (2+ 7)) * 2700

= 7 / 9 * 2700

= 2100

Hence, Zahra must have given away (2100 - x) = 600

2100 - 600

= 1500 marbles, so that both Zahra and Layala have the same number of marbles
