Sweet t has 2 orange picks for every 5 green. if there are 21 picks in all, how many picks are orange?

For 21 picks, there are 6 orange

Step-by-step explanation:

orange: green   : total

2               5            2+5

2             5              7

21/7 = 3

Multiply everything by 3

orange: green   : total

2*3          5*3          7*3

6                 15           21

For 21 picks, there are 6 orange
