Let x be larger integer so x-3 is the smaller
so x^2+ x-3 = 87
x^2 +x -90=0 and factor
(x-9)(x+10)=0
x=9 or x=-10 but x must be positive
so x=9 and smaller number is 6
- abc + 7abc - 3bc - 8abc
= 6abc - 3bc - 8bc
= -2abs - 3bc
Therefore
- 2abc - 3bc.

X^2+4x+4 and there is no remainder
Do you need it explained or just the answer
To answer this, you would use the original ratio of 2 to 5 and create an equivalent ratio that includes the 12 tulips. You would get a ratio of 12 to 30. This is not enough daisies.
I then tried 2/5 times 7/7, but it still did not reach the 36 daisies that are there. When you use a factor of 8, you will get 16 tulips to 40 daisies. This works!
You would need to add 4 tulips and 4 daisies to what he already has.
