Respuesta :

The ratio of Julia's to Vlada's peas was 3:2.
1. Julia gave Vlada 15 peas.
2. Vlada had how many peas?
3. Vlada had 4:2 peas after Julia gave her 15 more peas. (3:2+15=4:2)
4. Julia still had 15 more than Vlada.
5. Julia had 5:7 because (4:2+15=5:7)
6. To find out the amount of peas she had BEFORE she gave Vlada the peas, you subtract 5:7 from 15. That would equal 4:2.
