The answer is 8 daffodils, 18 total flowers, 15 carnations.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here are the statements to the question:

1. To make a large decoration, Pete uses 36 flowers. The decoration must have ………. daffodils.

2. A decoration with two roses will have a total of ……….. flowers

3. If Pete uses ten lilies, he should use …….. carnations

Given: 3 lilies, 1 rose, 3 carnations, 2 daffodils, and 1 Iris

For Pete to make a large decoration he uses 36 flowers and this decoration must have eight (8) daffodils.

A decoration with two roses will have a total of Eighteen (18) flowers. ( i.e. 9 flowers for medium size will be multiplied by the number of roses used - 2 x 9 = 18)

If Pete uses ten lilies, he will have to use fifteen (15) carnations
