Answer:
9 beads are purple
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
To find out how many beads are purple, multiply the total beads by the fraction of the beads that are purple
so

therefore
9 beads are purple
Another way to solve the problem is convert the fraction in percentage
we have

so
If the total are 18 beads
50% is 9 beads
therefore
9 beads are purple
Set up a system of equations.
X+y=6
Y-x =40
Substitution method.
Y=6-x
(6-x)-x =40
6-2x=40
-2x=34
X= -17
Plug it back into the equation.
-17+y=6
Y=33
(-17,33) is one of the possible answers.
