Answer:

lima beans = 10

red beans = 8

black-eyed peas = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 1/2 of the beans are lima beans:

⇒ 1/2 of 20 = 1/2 x 20 = 10

Given 2/5 of the beans are red beans:

⇒ 2/5 of 20 = 2/5 x 20 = 8

Given 1/10 of the beans are black-eyed peas:

⇒ 1/10 of 20 = 1/10 x 20 = 2

Lime beans:-

  • 1/2(20)=10beans

Red beans:-

  • 2/5(20)=8beans

Black eyed peas:-
