Answer 1

Answer

Find out the how many lilies would the florist use to create 6 identical arrangements.

To prove

As given

A florist uses 200 lilies to make 8 identical flower arrangements.

$florist\ uses\ lilies\ to\ make\ 1\ identical\ flower\ arrangements = \frac{Total\ number\ of\ lilies}{Total\ numbers\ of\ flower\ arrangement}$

$florist\ uses\ lilies\ to\ make\ 1\ identical\ flower\ arrangements = \frac{200}{8}$

Florist uses lilies to make 1 identical flower arrangements = 25

Now calculate lilies for the 6 identical arrangements.

lilies would the florist use to create 6 identical arrangements = 25 × 6

                                                                                                      = 150

Therefore the number of liles uses for 6 identical flower arrangements are 150.
