Answer:

percentage of red skittles = 22%

percentage of skittles that are not green = 74%

Explanation:

total skittles = 50

yellow = 12

orange = 9

red = 11

green = 13

purple = 50-12-9-11-13

= 5

1) percentage of red skittles

[tex] \frac{red \: skittles}{total \: skittles} \times 100[/tex]

[tex] \frac{11}{50} \times 100[/tex]

[tex] \frac{22}{10} [/tex]

[tex]22\%[/tex]

2) percentage of skittles that are not green

[tex] \frac{total \: skittles - green \: skittles}{total \: skittles} \times 100[/tex]

[tex] \frac{50 -13 }{50} \times 100[/tex]

[tex] \frac{37}{50} \times 100[/tex]

[tex]74\%[/tex]
