Problem: a bowl contains equal numbers of red , orange , green , blue , and yellow candies . kaz eats all of the green candies and half of the orange ones . next , he eats half of the remaining pieces of each color . finally , he eats red and yellow candies in equal proportions until the total number of remaining candies of all colors equals 25 % of the original number . what percent of the red candies remain ?
Rationale: "let x be the original number of each color . kaz eats all of the green candies and half of the orange ones . there are 0 green candies and 0.5 x orange candies remaining . he eats half of the remaining pieces of each color . there are 0.25 x orange candies , and 0.5 x each of red , yellow , and blue candies . he eats red and yellow candies in equal proportions . orange + blue + red + yellow = 0.75 x + red + yellow = 1.25 x red + yellow = 0.5 x red = 0.25 x , since red = yellow . the answer is c ."
