Solving Ratio Problems with Tables and Graphs

The video tutorial explains how to solve ratio problems using ratio tables and graphs. It presents a story problem involving red and green M&Ms, where the ratio of red to green is given, and there are 24 more red than green M&Ms. The tutorial guides viewers through completing a ratio table, plotting ordered pairs on a graph, and using these tools to find the total number of M&Ms in the bag. The solution involves identifying the correct ordered pair where the difference between red and green M&Ms is 24, leading to a total of 104 M&Ms.
