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!!
Answer:
5x -12 = 3x +8 (set the two = each other because they are the same length)
2x- 12= 8 (subtract 3x from both sides)
2x = 20 (add 12 to both sides)
x=10 (what x= for both expressions)
5(10) -12 (plug it into the first one to see what the length is and to see they're =
50 - 12 ( I already multiplied, now subtract)
38 (what the length of TR is)
3(10) +8 (plug it in again but into the other expression)
30+8 (multiply and add)
38 (the two have the same answer, so the x-value is correct.)
38+38= 76 (add the lengths of RS and TR and you get the length of TS)

8.25% (decimal) and 33/400 (fraction)
I would answer this but I am not sure
