Answer:

<u>The distribution of each one of the 14 planters is:</u>

<u>4 pansies </u>

<u>3 tulips </u>

<u>2 marigolds </u>

<u>All of the flowers were used by Ramona.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's find the number of planters and how many of each flower type will be in each planter, using the Hamilton method

Number of planters = 14

We calculate this using Greatest Common Divisor between 56, 42 and 28.

Total number of flowers = 126 ( 56 pansies, 42 tulips, and 28 marigolds)

Standard divisor = 14 (Number of planters)

Now, we can apportion the flowers in in Standard quotas, this way:

56 pansies = 56/14 = 4

42 tulips = 42/14 = 3

28 marigolds = 28/14 = 2

Like there are not decimals, we can use this quotas as the number of flowers distributed in each planter.

<u>The distribution of each one of the 14 planters is:</u>

<u>4 pansies </u>

<u>3 tulips </u>

<u>2 marigolds </u>

<u>All of the flowers were used by Ramona.</u>
