You have space in your garden for 50 small flowering bulbs. Crocus bulbs cost $0.25 each and daffodil bulbs cost $0.85 each. Your budget allows you to spend $28.10 on bulbs. How many crocus bulbs
and how many daffodil bulbs can you buy?

you can buy 24 crocus bulbs and 26 daffodil bulbs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of crocus bulbs that you can buy.

Let y represent the number of daffodil bulbs that you can buy.

You have space in your garden for 50 small flowering bulbs. It means that

x + y = 50

Crocus bulbs cost $0.25 each and daffodil bulbs cost $0.85 each. Your budget allows you to spend $28.10 on bulbs. It means that

0.25x + 0.85y = 28.1- - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 50 - y into equation 1, it becomes

0.25(50 - y) + 0.85y = 28.1

12.5 - 0.25y + 0.85y = 28.1

- 0.25y + 0.85y = 28.1 - 12.5

0.6y = 15.6

y = 15.6/0.6

y = 26

x = 50 - y = 50 - 26

x = 24

3/4 ÷ 3/4

step-by-step explanation:

basically divide any proper fraction with itself to fit the criteria.

so if we are using 3/4, then:

3/4 ÷ 3/4 = 1

so 1 is the quotient.

and the numerators for both these fractions is 3.   and if we divide the numerators:

3 ÷ 3 = 1

we see that quotient is equal to our original quotient as well.
