When you get home to plant the flowers, you have 3 different flowerbeds that you plan on planting flowers.
You have two flowerbeds where you want the same ratio for tulips to geraniums.
In one of these flowerbeds you have 4 tulips and 3 geraniums.
The other flowerbed you have 6 geraniums.

• How many tulips should there be in the second flowerbed to have the same ratio of tulips and geraniums as the first flowerbed?

• How many total geranium flowers are used in these two flowerbeds?

• How many total tulip flowers are to be used in these two flowerbeds?

• How many of each do we have left to use in the remaining flowerbed?

Respuesta :

1) There should be 8 tulips in the second flowerbed.

2) The first flowerbed has 4 tulips and the other has 8. So all together 12 tulips are used in those two glowerbeds.

3) I'm sorry. I can't answer this one.
