1)Russell from Up has 400 balloons. The balloons are red, yellow, blue and purple. Forty percent of the balloons are red, 5% are yellow, and a quarter are blue. How many purple balloons does Russell have? 2)Explain how you used benchmarking to find your answer to the previous question. Write 2 or more sentences. (i only need #2)

Blue Ballon = 16

Yellow Ballon = 23

Green Ballon = 26

Red Ballon = 32

Total puffs = 1000

23y + 16(2y) + 32y + 26(y/2) = 1000

23y + 32y + 32y + 13y = 1000

100y = 1000

y = 1000/10

y = 10

Therefore, russell

filled 10 yellow balloons.
