Question

There are 500 roses in a garden.the number of white roses is 5 more than four times the number of yellow roses.find the number of yellow and white roses

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Total no of roses = 500

let the number of white rises be x

let the number of yellow roses be y

given that x = 5 + 4y

so

x + y = 500

5 + 4y + y = 500

5 + 5y = 500

5y = 500-5

y = 495/5

y = 99

now x = 5 + 4.99 = 401

so no of red roses is 401 and yellow is 99

Confirmation :-

401 + 99 = 500 roses
