There are 96 roses in a bed in the park. 50% are yellow, 1/4 are red, and the rest are pink. How many roses are yellow, red and pink?
To find the number of yellow roses, we multiply the total number of roses (96) by 50%, which is 0.5:
Yellow = 96 x 0.5 = 48
To find the number of red roses, we find 1/4 of the total number of roses (96/4 = 24):
Red = 24
To find the number of pink roses, we subtract the number of yellow and red roses from the total:
Pink = 96 - 48 - 24 = 24
Therefore, there are 48 yellow roses, 24 red roses, and 24 pink roses.
Let's call the number of white roses "x".
According to the problem, there are twice as many red roses as white roses. So the number of red roses is 2x.
To find the total number of roses in the garden, we add the number of white roses and the number of red roses:
Total number of roses = number of white roses + number of red roses
Total number of roses = x + 2x
Total number of roses = 3x
Therefore, there are 3x roses in all. We don't know the value of x, so we can't give an exact answer. But we do know that the total number of roses is three times the number of white roses.
There are red roses in a garden. This is twice as many as there are white roses. How many roses are there in all?
To find the number of roses that are yellow, red, and pink, we can use the given percentages.
Step 1: Calculate the number of yellow roses.
Since 50% of the roses are yellow, we need to find half of the total number of roses:
50% of 96 = (50/100) * 96 = 0.5 * 96 = 48
Therefore, there are 48 yellow roses.
Step 2: Calculate the number of red roses.
Since 1/4 of the roses are red, we need to find one-fourth of the total number of roses:
(1/4) * 96 = 24
Therefore, there are 24 red roses.
Step 3: Calculate the number of pink roses.
We know that the remaining roses that are neither yellow nor red are pink.
To find the number of pink roses, subtract the sum of yellow and red roses from the total number of roses:
96 - 48 (yellow) - 24 (red) = 48
Therefore, there are 48 pink roses.
In summary:
- There are 48 yellow roses.
- There are 24 red roses.
- There are 48 pink roses.
