For this, you would use simultaneous equations.
w=walnuts
a=almonds
3w+6a=51
5w+4a=55
Find a way to make one of the unknowns equal. since we are trying to work out the price of a pound of walnuts, I am going to make a equal on each side to leave us with w. This leaves us with:
15w+12a=165
6w+12a=102
Then take them away to leave w:
9w=163
Then solve:
w=163/9
= 18.11111111...
Then round it to 2 decimal places as the measurement is currency.
So 1 pound of walnuts equals $18.11

Big marbles = 45red 3/4 blue
Small marbles = 2/5 red 3/5 blue 24 more small blue mabrles than red marbles
What percentage of the marbles are big marbles
First of all lets working out the missing values:
Big Marbles, 45 red, 3/4 blue. If 45 red is 1/4, then 135 (45*3) is 3/4.
Big Marbles, 45 red, 135 blue = 180 in total
For the small marbles, we do some logical thinking:
If red is 2/5, and blue is 3/5. And blue has 24 more than red.
That means 24 = 1/5
So in total there are 120 small marbles (24*5)
There are 180 big marbles
We add these together, 120 + 180 = 300 marbles
180 / 300 = 0.6 = 60%
^ Divide the big marbles by the number of total marbles
60% of the marbles are big marbles
