    The ratio of green bars to red bars is 44:33 which simplified is 4:3.

    We can set up an equation to find number of red bars:

    Since the ratio stays the same, # of green bars / # of red bars = 4/3,

    so 200200/x = 4/3 where x = # of red bars.

    Now solve for x:

    200200/x = 4/3

    (cross multiply)

    200200*3 = 4*x

    600600 = 4x

    600600/4 = x

    x = 150150

    There 150150 red bars if there are 200200 green bars.

    Hope this answers your question!
