Question

A gardener planted a total of 328 flowering plants in a garden. The sunflower plants were 12 less than thrice the rose plants. What was the number of rose plants?

Answer 1

Total = 328

let Rose plants = x

Sunflower plants = 3x - 12

Now , Sunflower + Rose plants = Total

3x - 12 + x = 328

4x = 328 + 12

x = 340 ÷ 4

Number of Rose plants = 85

Answer 2

Answer:

TOTAL NUMBER OF FLOWERING PLANTS=328

let number of rose plant=x

Given,

number of sunflower plant=3x-12

Step by step explanation:

as given in the question,

total number of plants=number of rose plant

+number of sunflower plant

328=x+3x-12

328=4x-12

4x=328+12

x=340/4

x=85

The answer is

number of rose plant=85
