A florist sold 6 iris bouquets and 15 other bouquets yesterday. Based on past data, how many of the next 35 bouquets sold should you expect to be iris bouquets?

We should expect 10 iris bouquet will be sold out of next 35 bouquet sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Number of iris bouquets sold yesterday = 6

Number of other bouquets sold yesterday = 15

We need to find number of iris bouquets sold out of 35 bouquets sold.

Solution:

Now we know that;

Total bouquet sold yesterday is equal to sum of Number of iris bouquets sold yesterday and Number of other bouquets sold yesterday.

framing in equation form we get;

Total bouquet sold yesterday =

Now we can say that;

Percent of iris bouquet sold is equal to Number of iris bouquets sold yesterday divided by Total bouquet sold yesterday and then multiplied by 100

framing in equation form we get;

Percent of iris bouquet sold =

Now based on this data we need to find number of iris bouquet sold when total bouquet sold is 35.

number of iris bouquet =

Hence we should expect 10 iris bouquet will be sold out of next 35 bouquet sold.
