Find the number of flowers offered by him in the temple.​

Answer 1

Answer:

i will try

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the flower he offered In Temple is x.

So the remaining flowers are (30 - x)

Now ratio of flowers in beginning and left after offered in temple is.

(30 - x) / 30 = 2 / 5

5(30 - x) = 30*2

150 - 5x = 60

150 - 60 = 5x

5x = 90

x = 90 / 5 = 18

So the no. Of flowers offered in temple is 18.
