Question

Maria has 64 flowers she makes 8 bouquets with the flowers how many bouquets of flowers will she have if she has 80 flowers

Answer 1

The ratio of flowers to bouquets is

64:8

With 80 flowers, the ratio would be

80:x

so...

64:8 divide each by 8 to get 8:1

multiply each by 10 to get

80:10

10 bouquets

Answer 2

80-64=16
16/8=2
64+16=80
64=8
80=10
in the end Maria would have 10 bouquets
