Question

morita works in a florist shop and makes flower arrangements. she puts 10 flowers in each vase, and 2/10 of the flowers are daisies. if morita makes 4 arrangements, how many daisies does she need?

Answer 1

Answer: 8 daises

Step-by-step explanation: First, find how many flowers are in 4 arrangements: 10*4=40

You can set this up as a proportion:²/₁₀ = x/₄₀

You can also just multiply 2 daisies by 4 arrangements.

8 daisies

Answer 2

In each arrangement, there are 10 flowers. The daisies are 2/10. multiplying 2/10 to 10, we get 2. So there are 2 daisies.

If Morita makes 4 arrangements, then the number of daisies she needs is
= 4 * 2
= 8

So she need 8 daises for here 4 arrangements.
