In an art class, four students - Laura, Neil, Olivia, and Peter - are working on painting landscapes. They each use a different set of paintbrushes: Laura's brushes have red handles, Neil's have blue handles, Olivia's have green handles, and Peter's have yellow handles. They take a break and leave their paintbrushes on the table. While they're gone, the art teacher cleans all the brushes and places them in a common container to dry. When the students return, where will they expect to find their individual paintbrushes?

Provide a very brief response.
When the students return from their break, they will expect to find their paintbrushes in the common container where the art teacher placed them to dry. Each student knows the color of the handle that distinguishes their brushes from the others: Laura's brushes have red handles, Neil's have blue handles, Olivia's has green handles, and Peter's have yellow handles. As the only distinguishing feature mentioned is the color of the handles, the students will look for paintbrushes with the corresponding handle colors to identify their own set. Since there is no mention of any other sorting or labeling system being used by the teacher, the expectation is that the students will simply retrieve their brushes based on the handle color from the common container.
