Answer:

For 21 picks, there are 6 orange

Explanation:

orange: green : total

2 5 2+5

2 5 7


If there are 21 picks, we need to divide by 7 to see how many times we need to multiply

21/7 = 3

Multiply everything by 3

orange: green : total

2*3 5*3 7*3

6 15 21

For 21 picks, there are 6 orange
