Question 272855: How would you work out this problem; It requires to show all work!
The cafeteria has 360 roses to sell for Valentine's Day. You want to pick
out a perfect red rose for someone special. When you get to the cafeteria
you discover:
*every third rose is too short
*every fourth rose has too many thorns
*every fifth rose is wilted
*every sixth rose is pink
*every eighth rose is yellow
If these are the only problems that the roses have, how many perfect roses are
there for you to choose from?
The problem requires to show all work. I would think that there is an
algebraic expression that would help me out, but I am in need of help.
I can help myself by making pictures to help visualize, but I think there must
be a better way.
Please help me if you can. Thank you! Answer by richwmiller(17219) (Show Source):
