______________________________________________

Step-by-step explanation:
______________________________________________
Total number of flowers = 2 daisies + 3 sunflowers + 4 tuplies ;

= { 2 + 3 + 4 } flowers ;

= { 9 flowers total} ;
________________________________________________
There are: " 3 sunflowers " .
________________________________________________
The problem/question is:
________________________________________________
→ " What is the ration of sunflowers planted to the total number of flowers? "
________________________________________________
→ 3 sunflowers : 9 flowers total ;

write as:

→ 3 : 9 ; or, write as:
`(3)/(9)` ;
________________________________________________
Simplify:
________________________________________________
→ 3/9 = (3÷3) / (9÷3) = 1/3 ;

The answer is: " 1 : 3 " ; or, write as: "
`(1)/(3)` " .
