Question

The flower shop recieved a shipment of 342 pink roses and 330 red roses. The shop owner uses 8 roses to make one arrangement. How many arrangements how many arrangements can the shop owner make if he uses all the roses

Answer 1

84 arrangements

Explanation:

First, we need to calculate the total number of roses that the shop owner has. We do this by adding the pink roses and the red roses that the owner has.

342 + 330 = 672 total roses

Now that we have the total number of roses we simply divide by the number of roses needed for each arrangement (8) in order to calculate the total number of arrangements that the owner can make.

672 / 8 = 84 arrangements
