Question

Gloria is a florist, and she just received an order for a bouquet of 30 roses.
The customer also made a special request of making 10% of the roses white, and the rest red.

What is the total number of white roses in the bouquet?

• A. 5
• B. 6
• C. 3
• D. 10

Answer 1

The correct option is C 3

Total number of roses in the bouquet = 30
Total number of white roses = 10% of 30

That is,
$\frac{10}{100}\times 30=\frac{30}{10}=3$

Thus, the total number of white roses in the bouquet = 3
