A stall was selling flowers. ¹₄ of the earnings are from the sale of 5 lavenders and 20 daffodils. Of the rest of the earnings, ³₅ are from the sale of lavenders and ²₅ are from the sale of daffodils. Each daffodil costs twice as much as each lavender. How many flowers were sold?

5 lavenders and 20 daffodils	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 5 lavenders and 20 daffodils
= 1 - ¹₄
= ³₄ 

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

Cost of 1 lavender = 1 u
Cost of 1 daffodil = 2 u

Cost of 5 lavenders = 5 x 1 u = 5 u
Cost of 20 daffodils = 20 x 2 u = 40 u

Total cost of 5 lavenders and 20 daffodils
= 5 u + 40 u
= 45 u

⁵₂₀ of the earnings → 45 u 
¹₂₀ of the earnings → 45 u ÷ 5 = 9 u 

⁹₂₀ of the earnings → 9 x 9 u = 81 u 

Number of lavenders sold that contributed to the rest of the earnings
= 81 u ÷ 1 u
= 81

⁶₂₀ of the earnings → 6 x 9 u = 54 u

Number of daffodils sold that contributed to the rest of the earnings
= 54 u ÷ 2 u
= 27

Number of flowers sold
= 5 + 20 + 81 + 27
= 133

Answer(s): 133
