3out of 5 picks are orange. if 12 picks are orange, has many picks are there in all.

The number of picks in all are:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that:

3 out of 5 picks are oranges.

i.e. out of the total 5 picks 3 are oranges.

so, the probability of oranges is:

3/5

Let 'n' picks be made.

Now, it is given that out of n picks made 12 are oranges.

i.e. the probability of oranges is:

12/n

Since, the probability of oranges are equal.

Hence,

Hence, the total number of picks that are made are:

20
