Question

Mona had 60 flowers. She offered some flowers in a temple and found that the ratio of
the number of remaining flowers to that of flowers in the beginning is 1 : 3. Find the
number of flowers offered by her in the temple.

Answer 1

Let common ratio be X

1 = 1x

3=3x

Total no. of flowers = 60

A.T.Q.

1x+3x=60

4x = 60

x=60/4

x=15

Remaining flowers = 1x = 15

No. of flowers offered in temple = 60-15 =45

Hope it helps u

Good night
