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!!
