Answer:

<u>60 green candies</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the proportion :

  • <u>Red : Green = 5 : 3</u>

<u />

Let's make a linear equation where candies is denoted by x.

  • 5x + 3x = 160
  • 8x = 160
  • x = 20

<u>Number of green</u>

  • 3x
  • 3(20)
  • <u>60 green candies</u>

What is numerical expression?<br> Three less than 11 times the sum of 9-2
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

11(9 - 2) - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

This is how you write the expression.

Three less means we have a -3.

11 times the sum of 9 - 2 means we have 11(9 - 2)

We put these together to get:

-3 + 11(9 - 2)

Or we can simplify it to:

11(9 - 2) - 3
