Question

Josie grew 15 flowers with 5 seed packets. With 14 seed packets, how many total flowers can Josie have in her garden? Assume the relationship is directly proportional.

Answer 1

42 flowers
How?

5 can go into 15 3 times

Which means 3 seeds per packet

Then you have 14 seed packets so you do 14x3 Which equals 42
Hoped this helped even tho it might be too late

Answer 2

42 flowers

Explanation:

15 flowers for every 5 packets

15 ÷ 5 = 3

3 flowers per 1 packet

14 × 3 = 42
