Question

A florist has 130 roses. if that is 65% of the total, how many flowers does she have?

Answer 1

$130 = 0.65 x$ , where x = the total amount of flowers.
$\frac{130}{0.65} = 200 flowers$

Answer 2

if 130 is 65% then find 100%
65%=65/100=13/20
13/20 of total=130
multiply both sides by 20/13
total=200

she has 200 flowers
