Because otherwise the two circles you build wouldn't have any intersection!

natita [175]

Answer:

84 arrangements

Step-by-step explanation:

342 + 330 = 672 total roses

Now that we have the total number of roses we simply divide by the number of roses needed for each arrangement (8) in order to calculate the total number of arrangements that the owner can make.

672 / 8 = 84 arrangements
