20% of the roses Annette picked from a rose garden were red. If she picked 10 red roses, how many roses did she pick from the garden? A.50 roses B.40 roses C.30 roses D.20 roses
For this case we can make the following rule of three: 20% -------------> 10 100% -----------> x From here, we clear the value of x: [tex]x = ((100) / (20)) * (10)
[/tex] Calculating the value of x we have: [tex]x = 50
[/tex] Therefore, Anette collected 50 roses from the garden. Answer: she did pick 50 roses from the garden
