A florist arranges 4 flower arrangements in 92 minutes.

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 9 \ arrangements }}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up a proportion using the following setup:

$\frac{arrangements}{minutes} =\frac{arrangements}{minutes}$

We know that the florist can arrange 4 in 92 minutes.

$\frac{4 \ arrangements}{92 \ minutes} = \frac{arrangements}{minutes}$

We don't know how many the florist can arrange in 207 minutes, so we say x arrangements can be completed in 207 minutes.

$\frac{4 \ arrangements}{92 \ minutes} = \frac{ x \ arrangements}{ 207 \ minutes}$

$\frac{4}{92} =\frac{x}{207}$

Solve for x by isolating it on one side of the proportion.

x is being divided by 207. The inverse of division is multiplication. Multiply both sides of the proportion by 207.

$207*\frac{4}{92}=\frac{x}{207}*207$

$207*\frac{4}{92}=x$

$207*0.0434782609=x$

$9=x$

The florist can arrange <u>9 arrangements</u> in 207 minutes.
