A stall was selling flowers. ¹₄ of the earnings are from the sale of 11 orchids and 13 daisies. Of the rest of the earnings, ³₅ are from the sale of orchids and ²₅ are from the sale of daisies. Each daisy costs thrice as much as each orchid. How many flowers were sold?

11 orchids and 13 daisies	Rest of the earnings		Total earnings
1x5	3x5
	Roses	Carnations
	3x3	2x3
5	9	6	20

Fraction of the earnings left after the sale of 11 orchids and 13 daisies
= 1 - ¹₄
= ³₄ 

The rest of the earnings is repeated. LCM of 3 and 5 is 15.

Cost of 1 orchid = 1 u
Cost of 1 daisy = 3 u

Cost of 11 orchids = 11 x 1 u = 11 u
Cost of 13 daisies = 13 x 3 u = 39 u

Total cost of 11 orchids and 13 daisies
= 11 u + 39 u
= 50 u

⁵₂₀ of the earnings → 50 u 
¹₂₀ of the earnings → 50 u ÷ 5 = 10 u 

⁹₂₀ of the earnings → 9 x 10 u = 90 u 

Number of orchids sold that contributed to the rest of the earnings
= 90 u ÷ 1 u
= 90

⁶₂₀ of the earnings → 6 x 10 u = 60 u

Number of daisies sold that contributed to the rest of the earnings
= 60 u ÷ 3 u
= 20

Number of flowers sold
= 11 + 13 + 90 + 20
= 134

Answer(s): 134
