The ratio of flowers to bulbs to seeds is 10:8:2.If the garden had a hundred flowers how many of them came from seeds

Answer 1

From the given ratio, we can determine that for every 10 flowers, there are 2 seeds.

If the garden had 100 flowers, we can set up a proportion to find out how many of them came from seeds:

10 flowers / 2 seeds = 100 flowers / x seeds

Cross multiplying:

10 * x = 100 * 2
10x = 200
x = 20

Therefore, out of the 100 flowers in the garden, 20 of them came from seeds.
