D(Pumpkin)

You have to first find out the ratio of the different plants

Tomato:Pepper:Squash: Pumpkin: Total
= 88:44:33:66:231

Divide 231 by 77 =3
This means that the original number of plant is also 3 times of 22, as the ratio and proportion of this plant out of the total number of plant will be the same.

Hence you multiply 22 with 3 to get 66, which is the original number of pumpkin plants.
