Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

Given the ratios of weights: * Red : Blue = 5 : 6 * Blue : Green = 5 : 4 We are given that the weight of the blue ball is 60 g . Using the second ratio (Blue : Green = \frac{5}{4}): \frac{Weight of Blue}{Weight of Green} = \frac{5}{4} \frac{60}{Weight of Green} = \frac{5}{4} Solve for the weight of the green ball: Weight of Green = \frac{60 \times 4}{5} = 12 \times 4 = 48 g
