Total |
Before |
3x7 = 21 u |
4 u

25 u |
Change |
- 1x7 = - 7 u |
- 3 u |
|
Comparing poppies and daffodils sold |
- 7x1 = - 7 u |
- 3x1 = - 3 u |
- 10x1 = - 10 u |
After |
2x7 = 14 u |
1 u |
15 u |
Number of poppies sold is repeated. Make the number of poppies the same. LCM of 1 and 7 is 7.
Total number of flowers sold = 10 u
Total number of flowers
= 21 u + 4 u
= 25 u
Fraction of the flowers that the florist sold
=
1025 =
25 Answer(s):
