    Hello,

    I believe the answer is 3/8 of the marbles in the collection are blue with sparkles.

    I say so because if 1/8 of the marbles are blue and of the blue marbles, 1/2 of them have sparkles, the remaining of the marbles must be blue with sparkles.

    Solution:

    1/2 - 1/8 = 3/8

    Thus, 3/8 of the marbles in the collection are blue with sparkles.

    Faith xoxo
