The correct answer is 6 rectangles.
First, you do 2/5 times 5 because 2/5 of 5 are purple, and of means to multiply. The answer is 2. So, for 1 scarf there are 2 purple rectangles.
Then, you would multiply 2 times 3, since there are 2 purple rectangles in 1, and you need to know how many are in 3. 2x3=6. So, 6 purple rectangles.
