There are 21 red pens. For every 3 red pens, there is 1 blue pen.
Let's make these into a fraction equation.
21/p=3/1
p is the number of blue pens we have yet to find.
First, cross multiply.
21x1=21
px3=3p
Now, we have an equation of
21÷3p
We set it equal to 1, and we solve it.
21÷3p = 1
(21÷3p)×3p=1×3p
21=3p
21÷3=(3p)÷3
7=p
So, if there are 21 red pens, there are 7 blue pens.
We add these together to find the total number of pens the teacher has.
21+7=28
The teacher has 28 pens total.

Translations are all about shifting the same thing.
A is more of a rotation
C is more of an enlargement
D is a mere reflection of what's on the other side.
The pattern or image that could best be described by a translation is (B) <span>seats on a school bus</span>
Answer:
B: Permutation; Number of ways = 60
Step-by-step explanation:
First we have to decide if this is a problem of permutation or combination. The rule is:
- If the order matters, permutations will be used
- If order does not matter, combinations will be used
In this problem, they order of awarding the medals matters, so this is a permutation problem.
We have to award 3 medals among 5 runners. So this can be done in 5P3 ways:
Therefore, there are 60 ways to award the medal. Therefore, the correct answer is B.
4 or more apples could be green because if there are 3 or less red then there must be 4-7 green
