Answer:

Explanation:

10 would be the total, since 2/10 are green. 1/2 of 10 is 5, so 5 candles are pink. 5+2=7. 10-7=red candles (3), there is ultimately 3 candles that are red.

1/2 of the candles on Claire's birthday cake are pink. 2/10 of the candles are green. The rest are red. What fraction of the candles is red?
