Elaine gave her grandmother 3/4 of 48 = (3/4)(48) = 36 of the flowers. Then Elaine had 48 -36 = 12 flowers left.
Her grandmother gave 1/4 of 36 flowers = (1/4)(36) = 9 of the flowers to her neighbor. Elaine's grandmother has 36 -9 = 27 flowers now.
- Elaine's grandmother has 27 flowers
- the neighbor has 9 flowers
- Elaine has 12 flowers
