1:2 = 3
2:4= 6
3:6= 9
4:8 = 12

This is how you do it!

So, There is a ratio of 1:2 for the orange to green.
This means that e can write an equation like this:

Let x be the orange picks

x + 2x = 12
3x = 12
x = 4

This means that there are 4 orange picks, and also 8 green picks

Now we can check that by simplifying the ratio --> 4:8 = 1:2

Therefore, your answer would be 8 green picks

Hope this helped!
