Answer:
You have to take 15 pens to get at least one red pencil.
Step-by-step explanation:
If there were one red and 6 green pens, there would be more red than green pens.
If there were 3 or more blue and thus 18 or more green pens, the number of pens would be over 20.
So there must be 2 blue, 12 green and thus 6 red pencils. So you have to take at least 15 pens to be sure that you got a red one.
<span>the number of trees in the garden = x
</span><span>coconut trees = 0.6x
</span><span>mango trees = 0.6x * 0.25 = 0.15x
</span><span>apple trees = 0.15x * 0.2 = 0.03x
0.03x = 1500
x = 1500/0.03
x = 50 000 </span>← <span>the number of trees in the garden.</span>
