Hamza Trujillo · Answer 1

1 game has 3 bags of green chips; 2 bags of red chips; 5 bags of yellow chips

1 bag: 25 green chips

1 bag: 30 red chips

total number of chips:

green: 3 x 25 = 75

red: 2 x 30 = 60

yellow: 75 + 60 = 135 answer to part a.

75 + 60 + 135 = 270 total number of chips.

270 / 54 = 5 players. answer to part b.

Each of the 5 players will have 15 green chips, 12 red chips, and 27 yellow chips, for a total of 54 chips.
