Suppose an unknown quantity of skittles were poured into a bowl but we were told the percentage of each color in the bowl using the following pie chart:
yellow: 16%
orange: 24%
purple: 18%
red: 20%
green: 22%
We then decide to remove 6 skittles of each color from the bowl (a total of 30 skittles removed) and recalculate the distribution of percentages...
yellow: 10%
orange 30%
purple: 15%
red: 20%
green: 25%
Based on this information, how many total skittles were in the original bowl?
