Answer:

There are 25 yellow flowers.

Explanation:

The ratio is yellow/all and 5/9.

We know that all the flowers in total equal 45, which is a multiple of 9.

So 45 divided by 9 = 5.

So all I had to do was multiply 5/9 times 5/5.

So then we get the ratio of 45 total flowers with 25 yellow flowers.

Hope this helps!
