Two-fifths of the socks in box are , one-third is blue, and the rest are green. What is the ratio of the green socks to the blue socks? Correct Answer 4:5

Red socks = 2/5 of total Blue socks = 1/3 of total Rest are green, so green socks = 1 - 2/5 + 1/3 = 1 - (6 + 5)/15 = 1 - 11/15 = (15 - 11)/15 = 4/15 of total Hence, ratio of green to blue socks = 4/15 : 1/3 = 4 : 5 So, the correct answer choice is option 1
