Question

megan cut 108 roses to make flower arrangements. she made 9 equal arrangements. how many roses were in each arrangement. ​

Answer 1

Answer: 12 ROSES

Explanation:

If we translate the problem to numbers you will see something like this:

`x*9=108`

Where:

`x=the number of roses for each arrangements\\9=the amount of arrangements made\\108= the total of roses cut`

So you have to solve the equation:

Its a first grade equation, you have to past the value with his product inverse, so the product transform into a division.

Then you have to solve the division between 108 and 9 to obtain the value:

`x=(108)/(9) \\\\x= 12`

And thats all.

To verify, now you can replace the x on the equation for the obtained value.

`12*9=108`
