Question

Matthew has a bag of green & yellow skittles. There are 38 total in the bag.

If g = green Skittles & y = yellow Skittles, which equation represents this?


g - y = 38


g + y = 38


gy = 38


g/y = 38

Answer 1

if there is a total of 38 skittles in the bag....and they are both green and yellow......then green ones plus yellow ones = 38

g + y = 38
