Cameron bought 28 flowers from one store and 21 flowers from another store. She puts an equal number of the flowers into each of 7 vases.

How many flowers does Cameron put into each vase?

well the first step is to add 28 and 21. 28 + 21 = 49. so we now know there are a total of 49 flowers. then you would divide 49 and 7.i knew I to divide because the problem uses key words like each and equal. overall, the answer would be seven, because 7 * 7 = 49. hope this helped.:)

He would put 7 into each vase. First you add all of the flowers together to get 49 and then divide it by 7 because there is 7 vases.
