For every two rows of sunflowers there were 8 rows of other flowers if there are 240 rows of flowers in the garden how many are not rows of sunflowers?

To solve this problem, we simply need to identify the variables, where sunflowers are "s" and other flowers can be "f". Since we know that there are 8 rows of "f" for every 2 rows of "s", we can find that s=4f. This can lead to the equation:

2s+8f=240; or, when substituted, 2(4f)+8f=240.

We can solve this equation as 16f=240, or f=15.

Now, we can put f into s=4f, and find that s=60. So we can subtract the total number of rows by 60 to find the total number of "f" rows.

240-60=180.

This means that there are 180 rows that are NOT sunflowers.

Hope this helps!

answer set (b) 0.5, 3/4 80% is in order from least to greatest.  

step-by-step explanation:

in order to compare rational numbers to each other, it is much easier if they are in the same form.   typically, the best form in which to evaluate rational numbers is in decimals.   in order to convert a percent to a decimal, you would divide the given percentage by 100.   you can also accomplish the conversion by moving the decimal point over two places to the left.   for example, the decimal value of 80% is 80/100, or 0.8.   in order to convert a fraction to a decimal, you need to divide the numerator by the denominator.   for example, 3/4 is 0.75.   so, for choice (b) 0.5 3/4 (0.75), 80% (0.8) is the only choice in which the numbers are in order from least to greatest.
