Why were too countries arguing over the Elgin Marbles?
The Elgin Marbles, a collection of classical Greek marble sculptures, have been the subject of dispute between Greece and the United Kingdom since the early 19th century. Greece argues that the marbles were taken illegally from the Parthenon and should be returned as a matter of cultural heritage and national pride. The UK contends that Lord Elgin acquired the marbles legally and that they have been preserved and displayed in the British Museum. This disagreement reflects broader themes of colonial legacy, cultural ownership, and the ethics of museum collections.

12 blue marbles
A sack contains red and blue marbles. The ratio of red marbles to blue marbles is 43. If there are 16 red marbles in the sack how many blue marbles are in the sack?
Given the ratio of red marbles to blue marbles is 4:3 and there are 16 red marbles, we can set up a proportion. If 4 parts represent 16 red marbles, then 1 part equals 4 marbles (16 ÷ 4). Thus, for the blue marbles, which represent 3 parts, there are 3 × 4 = 12 blue marbles in the sack.
