Question

A florist is making bouquets. Draw lines to match each

description with the number of bouquets she can make.
52 bouquets
630 roses with 10 roses in each bouquet
53 bouquets
640 roses with 12 roses in each bouquet
54 bouquets
975 roses with 18 roses in each bouquet
63 bouquets
1,250 roses with 24 roses in each bouquet

Answer 1

1) 630 roses with 10 roses in each bouquet = 63 bouquets

2) 640 roses with 12 roses in each bouquet = 53 bouquets

3) 975 roses with 18 roses in each bouquet = 54 bouquets

4) 1,250 roses with 24 roses in each bouquet = 52 bouquets

Explanation:

We need to match each description with the number of bouquets that can be made.

Solving this, we need to make bouquet of roses and each bouquet contains the given number of roses. We need to divide the total roses available by number of roses in each bouquet to find number of bouquets.

The formula used will be:
`Number\:of\:bouquets=(Total\;roses)/(Number\:of\:roses\:in\:each\:bouquet)`

1) 630 roses with 10 roses in each bouquet

Total roses = 630

Number of roses in each bouquet = 10

So, number of bouquets will be:

`Number\:of\:bouquets=(Total\;roses)/(Number\:of\:roses\:in\:each\:bouquet)\\Number\:of\:bouquets=(630)/(10)\\Number\:of\:bouquets=63`

So, 63 bouquets can be made.

2) 640roses with 12 roses in each bouquet

Total roses = 640

Number of roses in each bouquet = 12

So, number of bouquets will be:

`Number\:of\:bouquets=(Total\;roses)/(Number\:of\:roses\:in\:each\:bouquet)\\Number\:of\:bouquets=(640)/(12)\\Number\:of\:bouquets=53.3 \approx53`

So, 53 bouquets can be made.

3) 975 roses with 18 roses in each bouquet

Total roses = 975

Number of roses in each bouquet = 18

So, number of bouquets will be:

`Number\:of\:bouquets=(Total\;roses)/(Number\:of\:roses\:in\:each\:bouquet)\\Number\:of\:bouquets=(975)/(18)\\Number\:of\:bouquets=54.1\approx54`

So, 54 bouquets can be made.

4) 1,250 roses with 24 roses in each bouquet

Total roses = 1250

Number of roses in each bouquet = 24

So, number of bouquets will be:

`Number\:of\:bouquets=(Total\;roses)/(Number\:of\:roses\:in\:each\:bouquet)\\Number\:of\:bouquets=(1250)/(24)\\Number\:of\:bouquets=52`

So, 52 bouquets can be made.
