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)
7/8 / 2/5 is equal to 7/8 x 5/2 which equals 35/16, 16 goes into 35 twice so there are 2 wholes there is a remaining of 3 so we put it as a fraction over 16
the answer is 2 3/16
Answer:
40
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the numbers be 2x and 3x
Then their L.C.M. = 6x
BUT also their LCM=48
6x=48
x=48/6
x=8
So,
First number=2x=2x8=16
Second number=3x=3x8=24
The numbers are 16 and 24.
Hence required sum =(16+24)=40
So none of the options are correct
