Joseph is going to paint the panels of a fence. He is going to use the same repeating pattern for the entire fence. The rule is "orange, yellow, pink, green, purple." If there are 98 panels in the fence, how many will be painted green? Enter your answer in the box.%C2%A0 (1 point) There will be%C2%A0 %C2%A0green panels.
The repeating pattern consists of 5 colors: orange, yellow, pink, green, and purple. Since there are 98 panels in the fence, and 5 colors in the pattern, we can divide the total number of panels by the number of colors in the pattern to find how many times the pattern repeats itself:
98 panels / 5 colors = 19 full repetitions of the pattern (with 3 panels left over).
Since the pattern repeats itself 19 times, there will be 19 green panels.
