OK so you have 250 skittles. But you only pull out 25. You pull out 5 red skittles, 7 yellow skittles,8 orange skittles,2 green skittles and 3 purple skittles. So how many red skittles are in the whole box. The way i would look at it is theres 5 red skittles in every 25 skittles. So whats 250 divided by 25 that would be 10. So you can imagine you have 10 groups of skittles. In each group theres 5 skittles. So all together there would be 50 red skittles. Sooo based on the infromation there would be 50 red skittles expected in the box. I hope this helped pls mark me as brainliest!!

cupoosta [38]
Rearrange to

6ab+21b-8a-28 now factor 1st and 2nd pair of terms...

3b(2a+7)-4(2a+7)

(3b-4)(2a+7)

So it is the third one down...

Factor out the coefficient of the variable 5/6s+2/3
DochEvi [55]
Okay. so I'm gonna assume you know what factor out means--were gonna take out 5/6. what we need to know is, how does that affect our ending number 2/3? well, we're gonna have 5/6 times some stuff first off, right?

5/6 ( )

so what's in the parenthesis? well, if we distribute in our mind, S would just have to be by itself for it to work out. so we have

5/6 ( s )

but what about 2/3? well, if we're multiplying everything on the inside by 5/6, how can be get it to cancel and leave 2/3 alone? we could divide 2/3 by 5/6, right?

5/6 ( s + (2/3) / (5/6) )

now, when we distribute our 5/6, we'll have just 2/3 at the end. now let's simplify that end term so it looks a little better. if we divide by a fracion, that's the same as multiplying by the flipped version, so let's do that.

2/3 / 5/6 = 2/3 × 6/5 = 2 (6) / 5 (3) = 12/15

we can reduce 12/15 by dividing the top and bottom by three.

= 4/5

so our final answer would be:

5/6 [S + 4/5] you can redistribute to make sure it matches. Anyway, hope that helps!
