PLEASE HELP

Answer 1

20 red tulips: True

10 yellow tulips False

24 white tulips: False

16 pink tulips: True

Explanation:

Convert each of the percentages to fractions, multiply each of those fractions by 80 and you will get the actual number of each color of tulip planted

Red tulips : 25% = 25/100 = 5/20; 5/20 x 80 = 20 (True)

Yellow tulips: 10%: 10/100 = 1/10; 1/10 x 80 = 8 (False)

White tulips: 40/100 = 4/10; 4/10 x 80 = 32(False)

Pink tulips: 20% = 20/100 = 2/10; 2/10 x 80 = 16 (True)
