Question

аждому выпускнику школы решили подарить по одинаковому букету цветов для этого купили 114 гвоздик Когда в каждый букет добавили еще по две розы, то в нем оказалось 5 витков Сколько выпускников было в школе?

Answer 1

To solve this problem, we can set up an equation based on the given information. Let's assume there were "x" graduates in the school.

Each bouquet initially contained 114 carnations. When 2 roses were added to each bouquet, the total number of flowers in each bouquet became 5 times the number of bouquets.

So, the equation can be written as:

114 + 2 = 5x

To solve for "x," we can simplify the equation:

116 = 5x

Dividing both sides of the equation by 5, we find:

x = 116 / 5

Calculating this, we get:

x = 23.2

Since we cannot have a fraction of a graduate, we can conclude that there were 23 graduates in the school.
