Answer:

therefore the second bouquet will have more flowers , as it will have 25 daisies

Step-by-step explanation:

3 roses for every 5 carnations

5 daisies for every 4 carnations

we can solve this using cross multiplication

3 : 5

x : 20

5x = 60

x = 60/5

x = 12

meaning that for a bouquet that has 20 carnations there will be 12 roses

5 : 4

x : 20

4x = 100

x = 25

meaning that for a bouquet that has 20 carnations there will be 25 daisies.

therefore the second bouquet will have more flowers , as it will have 25 daisies
