There are 45 red marbles in the jar.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Total marbles = 125

Percentage of green marbles = 4%

[tex]Green\ marbles = 125 * \frac{4}{100}\\= 125*0.04\\=5[/tex]

Percentage of blue marbles = 60%

[tex]Blue\ marbles = 125 * \frac{60}{100}\\= 125*0.60\\= 75[/tex]

So,

[tex]Red\ marbles = Total\ marbles -Green\ Marbles-Blue\ Marbles\\= 125 - 5-75\\=125-80\\=45[/tex]

There are 45 red marbles in the jar.
