Let’s go step by step.
We are told:
- Color every
uppercase E (that’s “E”) with
BLUE.
- Color every
lowercase e (that’s “e”) with
PINK.
Now, let’s look at all the eggs in the basket and count how many of each letter there are.
First, list all the letters you see on the eggs:
Top row (left to right):
1. e → lowercase → PINK
2. E → uppercase → BLUE
3. e → lowercase → PINK
4. E → uppercase → BLUE
Second row:
5. E → uppercase → BLUE
6. e → lowercase → PINK
7. E → uppercase → BLUE
8. e → lowercase → PINK
Third row:
9. e → lowercase → PINK
10. E → uppercase → BLUE
11. e → lowercase → PINK
12. e → lowercase → PINK
Fourth row:
13. E → uppercase → BLUE
14. e → lowercase → PINK
15. E → uppercase → BLUE
16. e → lowercase → PINK
17. E → uppercase → BLUE
Wait — let me recount carefully by going egg by egg from top to bottom, left to right, so we don’t miss any.
Actually, looking again — there are 17 eggs total? Let me number them properly.
Better approach: Just go through each egg one by one and mark whether it’s E or e.
Start from the top:
Row 1 (topmost):
- Left: e → pink
- Middle-left: E → blue
- Middle-right: e → pink
- Right: E → blue
→ That’s 2 blue, 2 pink
Row 2:
- Left: E → blue
- Middle-left: e → pink
- Middle-right: E → blue
- Right: e → pink
→ Another 2 blue, 2 pink → Total so far: 4 blue, 4 pink
Row 3:
- Left: e → pink
- Middle-left: E → blue
- Middle-right: e → pink
- Right: e → pink
→ 1 blue, 3 pink → Total: 5 blue, 7 pink
Row 4 (bottom row before the base):
- Left: E → blue
- Middle-left: e → pink
- Middle-right: E → blue
- Right: e → pink
- Far right: E → blue
→ Wait, is that 5 eggs here? Let me check the image layout again mentally.
Actually, looking at the arrangement:
There are 4 rows of eggs above the woven basket base.
Row 1 (top): 4 eggs → e, E, e, E → 2E, 2e
Row 2: 4 eggs → E, e, E, e → 2E, 2e
Row 3: 4 eggs → e, E, e, e → 1E, 3e
Row 4: 5 eggs? Let's see — actually, counting visually:
From left to right, bottom row has:
- E (left)
- e
- E
- e
- E (right)
Yes — 5 eggs in the fourth row.
So Row 4: E, e, E, e, E → 3E, 2e
Now add up:
Blue (E):
Row 1: 2
Row 2: 2
Row 3: 1
Row 4: 3
Total E = 2+2+1+3 = 8
Pink (e):
Row 1: 2
Row 2: 2
Row 3: 3
Row 4: 2
Total e = 2+2+3+2 = 9
Double-check total eggs: 8 + 9 = 17 eggs. That matches what we can count.
So:
- 8 eggs should be colored BLUE (for uppercase E)
- 9 eggs should be colored PINK (for lowercase e)
Final Answer:
Color 8 eggs blue and 9 eggs pink.
