Garden one and two are both unknown, so I am choosing to call garden 2 X and then label garden 1 with comparisons to X.
It is tempting to list:
Garden Two = X
Garden One = X + 9
BUT there is an easier way. We are told that when 3 bushes are taken from garden 2 (x-3) and put in garden 1 (x + 12) then garden one has 1.5 times more than garden two.
Set it up like this:
1.5 ( x - 3) = x + 12 (because 1.5 times garden 2 will give us garden 1)
1.5x - 4.5 = x + 12 (Distribute)
.5x = 16.5 (Use subtraction to move variables to the right and other numb left)
x = 33 for Garden 2
33 + 9 for Garden 1 = 42
Answer:
Randomly selecting a six of diamonds - 1 / 52
Randomly selecting a 7, 8, 9 or 10 - 4 / 13
Step-by-step explanation:
There is only 1 six of diamonds in a standard deck of cards. There are 52 cards in a deck, thus the probability of pulling a six of diamonds is 1 in 52.
There are 4 of each card in a deck. so they are 4 7's, 4 8's. 4 9's and 4 10's. And there are a total of 52 cards in a deck. So the probability of pulling a 7,8,9 or 10 are 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 in 52
4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 16
16 / 52 simplified is 4 / 13 Therefore the is a 4 in 13 chance of pulling a 7 8 9 or 10
The other ones are correct

Answer:
111 girls
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Boys: Every 17 outdoor ≈ 20 indoor
Girls: 3:2 outdoor to indoor
First, we'll determine the ratio of outdoor to indoor for boys;
Recall that;
17 choose indoor while 20 choose outdoor;
The ratio of outdoor to indoor is;
20 : 17
Convert to fraction:
Let x represent number of boys that choose indoor when 85 boys chose outdoor;
The ratio of outdoor to indoor is;
x : 85
Convert to fraction
Equate both fractions
Multiply both sides by 85
This implies that when 85 chose outdoor, 100 chose indoor for boys;
Total = 100 + 85
Total = 185 boys surveyed
<em>Recall that the question says the same number of boys and girls were surveyed</em>
This implies that
Total Girls Surveyed = 185
For the girl ratio;
Outdoor to Indoor= 3:2
Number of girls that chose outdoor is as follows;
<em>Hence, the number of girls that chose outdoor is 111</em>
So first u fill in 2/3 of all the circles then u can count that so the answer is 10/3 which is 3 and 1/3
