    Red is 19

    Blue is 57

    Step-by-step explanation:

    According to the question, it says Sam has 25% red marble out of the 76.

    It means 25/100*76

    It gives 19

    To get the value for blue

    Blue + red=76

    Red is 19

    Blue + 19=76

    Blue=76-19

    Blue=57

    Therefore, red is 19 and blue is 57

    So to find 25% of 76 we multiply 76*0.25 which equals 19. So Sam has 19 red marbles.

    76-19=57

    So 57 of Sam's marbles are blue.

    Sam has 19 red marbles and 57 blue marbles.

    The answer is the first choice.
