$120 + $72 = $192
Answer:
8 roses (and 9 carnations)
Step-by-step explanation:
- For this problem I find the best method to be guess and check, so lets pick a number. We will use 8 since that is correct answer.
- Picking 8 we need to multiply that by $15. (8x15=120)
- Now, we need to choose another number. We will choose 9 since that is correct.
- Picking 9 we need to multiply that by $8. (9x8=72)
- Decide, does it work? To figure this out we need to check our work. To do this add 120 and 72. (120+72=192)
- Getting $192, we know our numbers our accurate and correct.
- Hope this helped! If you need further explanation or more help on any other problems please let me know, as I would be glad to help anytime.
