Question

G.o ha 3 orange picks gor every 2 green if there are 25 in all how many are orange

Answer 1

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1. You can make the following expression, where
`O` is the orange picks and
`G` is the green picks:

`O+G=25`

2. You have that there are 3 orange picks gor every 2 green, therefore:

`[tex](3)/(2) =(O)/(G)\\ G=(2)/(3)O`[/tex]

3. Substitute
`G` into the first equation and solve for
`O`:

`O+(2)/(3)O=25\\ (5)/(8)O=25\\ O=15`

The answer is: There are 15 orange.
