1 black 4 white

Step-by-step explanation:

It must be 2:3 so you have to change the current ratio from black to white(7:8) to 2:3

So the first number has to be the closets multiple of 2(8) and you have to divide 8 by 2 to get 4 and multiply that by 3 to get the ratio 8:12 which is equivalent to 2:3

because linear equations are a lot simpler than quadratics equations, and linear equations formula is a lot easier to memorize. that's why i think they're harder.
