Given
GO.o has 3 orange picks for every 2 green
there are 25 picks in all
Find out how many picks are orange.
To proof
As given in question
GO.o has 3 orange picks for every 2 green
i.e the ratio of orange to every green becomes
total number of picks = 25
let the GO.o pick of 3 orange picks for every 2 green =x
than the equation becomes
3x + 2x = 25
5x = 25
x = 5
Than
the number of oranges = 3x
putting the value of x
= 15
the number of green = 2x
= 10
thus the 15 picks are orange.
Hence proved
