Answer & Step-by-step explanation:
This is a proportion. To solve it, we need to set up the equation.
___________________________________________________
Step 1: Set up the Proportion
The proportion here needs to be expressed as:
[tex]\frac{pink flowers}{white flowers}[/tex]
Since this ratio is 3/2, we can set up the proportion as follows:
[tex]\frac{3}{2} =\frac{a}{36}[/tex]
___________________________________________________
Step 2: Use Cross-Multiplication
2a = 3 × 36
3a = 216
a = 72
___________________________________________________
Step 3: Repeat for the Other Values
[tex]\frac{3}{2} = \frac{72}{b}[/tex]
3b = 2 × 72
3b = 144
b = 48
___________________________________________________
[tex]\frac{3}{2} = \frac{126}{c}[/tex]
3c = 2 × 126
3c = 252
