How?
To find out how many flowers are in each bouquet, we need to divide the total number of flowers by the number of bouquets.
In this case, the flower store has a total of 24 + 36 = 60 flowers. And there are 6 bouquets.
So, to find out how many flowers are in each bouquet, we divide 60 by 6:
60 ÷ 6 = 10
Therefore, there are 10 flowers in each bouquet.
Divide 24 and 36 by 6.
