Answer:
(a) 4 flats
(b) 4 flower plants
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the length of the bed is = 27 feet long
The space between plants is = 1 foot
Find number of plant flowers to be planted along this bed;
[tex]=\frac{27}{1} +1=28[/tex]
=28 flower plants
You know from the question that;
6 flower plants= 1 flat
28 flower plants=? flats---------------------cross-multiply
[tex]=\frac{28*1}{6} =4flats[/tex]
Remaining flower plants
28-24=4 flower plants left over
Answer:
Flats Needed = 05
Leftover Plants = 02
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Length of the bed = 27 Feet
Distance between the plants = 1 foot
No. of plants in on flat = 06
Solution:
Total no. of plants needed = 27+1 = 28
This means Maria needs 5 flats.
So total plants that Maria has = 6×5 = 30
No. of plants Maria planted = 28
Leftover plants = 30-28 = 2
