You can put this solution on YOUR website!
the probablity (P) that a bulb will bloom based on these results is:
\n" ); document.write( "\"P=62%2F74\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28P=0.837%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "So if you want 95 to bloom based on this probabilty, you must plant N bulbs:
\n" ); document.write( "\"N=95%2F.837\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"N=113.5\"
\n" ); document.write( "you will need to round this up, since you can't plant half a bulb:
\n" ); document.write( "\"highlight%28N=114%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "==============
\n" ); document.write( "Good Luck,
