Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Pepper Jackie has 12 picks, 1 out of every 4 pick is orange and the rest are green.

So there could be three groups of 4 each and in each group there is 1 orange.

There are 3 groups of 4 each that makes 12 ( $3 \times 4=12$ )

Now, in each group there is 1 orange, so in three groups there will be

$1+1+1=3$ orange.

1 for each group.

Ms. drake invests $1000 at a simple interest rate of 8.5% for 2 years. how much interest will she earn in this time?

Ms. Drake will earn $\$ 170$ in this time from the investment of $\$ 1000$ at a simple interest with rate of interest $8.5\%$

<h3>What is the definition of simple interest?</h3>

Simple interest is a way to figure out how much interest will be charged on a sum of money at a specific rate and for a specific duration of time. Conversely, for compound interest, where we add the interest of one year's principal to the next year's principal to compute interest, the principal amount under simple interest remains constant.

Formula for finding simple interest is $\frac{principal \times rate \ of \ interest \times time}{100}$
