Question
Mayor Harvey wanted to add color to the party. He bought flowers representing the 7 colors of the rainbow. If he had 12 bouquets of flowers for each color, what are the total bouquets of colors?
- 15
- 72
- 60
- 84
Hint:
We are given that, Mayor Harvey bought different colored flowers. He bought the flowers to add color to the party. The flowers are in 7 different colors of rainbow. There are 12 bouquets for each color. We have to find the total number of bouquets.
The correct answer is: 72
There are 7 different colors of flowers.
So, we can write
Color of flowers = 7
There are 12 bouquets for each color.
So, we can write
Number of bouquets for each color = 12
We have to find total number of bouquets. We will do it by multiplying the colors of flowers and number of bouquets for each color.
Total number bouquets = Color of flowers × Number of bouquets for each color
Total number of bouquets = 7 × 12
= 84
Therefore, there are 84 bouquets in total.
We have to use the rule of multiplication for such questions.
