Answer:
B (2 violet)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the colors be represented by their first letter. Then the balances give rise to two equation:
o +y +b +v = r +g +b
o +y +v = g +v
Subtracting the second equation from the first gives ...
(o +y +b +v) -(o +y +v) = (r +g +b) -(g +v)
b = r +b -v
Adding v-b to both sides, we have ...
b +(v -b) = r +b -v +(v -b)
v = r
Multiplying this result by 2, we can match the final balance:
2r = 2v . . . . . . . choice B
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Substitute x from the second equation into the second one</u>







<u>Step 2: Substitute y into the second equation</u>




Answer: 
Remark
You have to read this carefully to know what way to write it.
One way you could write it would be
20 * x = 18 where x is the fraction. Now all you need do is divide.
Divide both sides by 20
20/20 * x = 18/20

But you should reduce this fraction. The way to do that is to factor 18 and 20 into primes.
18: 2 * 3 * 3
20: 2 * 2 *5
Cancel out the Highest common factor or 2.
