Question

Sweet tea has 2 orange picks for every 5 green. If there are 21 picks in all, how many picks are orange?

A) 20
B) 7
C) 10
D) 6

Answer 1

I'm guessing c) 10 kxk

Answer 2

Think this way:

2:5 (7 total)

If there are 21 total - we multiply the orange and the green by 3 each:

6:15

So 6.
