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>

Joe collected 94 stamps altogether. He collected 27 in April and 34 in May. How many did he collect in June?
inna [77]
If Joe collected 94 stamps which are in April May and June, we could make an equation like this: A + M + J = All stamps

Plug in the values:
27 + 34 + j = 94
Isolate J:
j = 94 - 27 - 34
Combine like terms:
j = 33
He collected 33 stamps in June.
