To find out how many daisies the florist sold, we first need to calculate the number of daisies as a percentage of the total number of flowers.
Total number of flowers sold = 180 (lilies) + daisies + roses + tulips
Since daisies are 20% of the total number of flowers, we can calculate the number of daisies as:
Daisies = 20% of (180 + daisies + roses + tulips)
Daisies = 0.2(180 + daisies + 3/8 + 17.5%)
Now, we can write a new equation to find the total number of lilies and daisies sold:
Total lilies and daisies = 180 (lilies) + daisies
Plugging in the value of daisies from the previous equation, we get:
Total lilies and daisies = 180 + 0.2(180 + daisies + 3/8 + 17.5%)
Solving this equation will give us the total number of lilies and daisies sold by the florist.
The pie chart below shows the types of flowers sold by florist last Friday the florist sold 180 lilies on that day
Lilies=180
Daisies= 20%
Roses= 3/8
Tulips= 17.5%
