2 orange + 1 green = 3 picks

Variable of interest goes on top while the total goes on bottom.

2 orange out of 3 picks is the same as 2/3
1 green out of 3 picks is the same as 1/3

First focus on the green to find total number of picks.

1 green / 3 picks = 6 green / x picks

Solve for x.

1/3 = 6/x
(multiply x on both sides)
1/3x = 6
x = 18 total picks

2/3x = orange picks
(plug in x)
2/3(18) = 12 orange picks

Answer: There are 12 picks that are orange.

What is the solution to the given inequality?
SashulF [63]

1/2 - 1/4x ≥ -1/4

Combine 1/4x to get x/4:

1/2 - x/4 ≥ -1/4

Subtract 1/2 from both sides:

-x/4 ≥ -1/4 - 1/2

Simplify:

-x/4 ≥ -3/4

Multiply both sides by 4:

-x ≥ -3/4 * 4

-x ≥ -3

Multiply each side by -1 ( and since you are multiplying by -1, you also need to reverse the inequality sign)

Answer: x ≤ 3
