Answer:

The gardeners should buy 45 white hydrangeas and 104 pink hydrangeas.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the gardeners at Middleton Place Gardens have to buy x numbers of white hydrangeas and y number of pink hydrangeas.

So, x + y = 41 {Given} ........... (1)

Again, for another flower bed they want to plant 108 hydrangeas, where the number of white ones is 2 times that of Middleton Place Gardens and the number of pink ones is 3 times that of Middleton Place Gardens.

So, 2x + 3y = 108 ........ (2)

Now, solving equations (1) and (2) we get,

3y - 2y = 108 - 82 = 26

⇒ y = 26

And from equation (1) we get,

x = 41 - 26 = 15.

So, the total number of white hydrangeas the gardeners have to buy is (x + 2x) = 3x = 3 × 15 = 45.

And the total number of pink hydrangeas the gardeners have to buy is (y + 3y) = 4y = 4 × 26 = 104. (Answer)
