Answer:

187.5 vegetables in total

Explanation:

If 60% of the vegetables are carrots, that means 40% of the vegetables are broccoli. To find what 75 is 40% of, we must do 75 over x equals 40 over 100. We then multiply: 75x100=7500, then divide 7500 by 40 to get 187.5.

Hope this helps! (Sorry if the explanation is confusing)
