Florist sells holiday bouquets that use roses and carnations in a ratio of 2 to 7 She receives a shipment of 343 carnations How many roses will the florist need?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Since the ratio of roses to carnations is 2 to 7, we can set up a proportion to find out how many roses the florist will need. We have 2 roses to 7 carnations, so let's set it up as 2/7 = x/343, where x represents the number of roses needed. To solve for x, we cross-multiply and get 7x = 2 * 343, which simplifies to 7x = 686. Dividing both sides by 7, we find x = 98. Therefore, the florist will need 98 roses.

Floral design courses teach the basics of arranging flowers, including the different types of flowers, their color and texture, cutting and taping techniques, tying bows and ribbons, proper handling and care of flowers, floral trends, and pricing.

How many birthday floral arrangements are available through 1-800-Flowers for more than 65 dollars?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

As a former co-owner of a flower shop, I can tell you that there is no definitive answer to this question. Because a customer can call and request a customized arrangement for a specified price - whether it be sixty-five dollars or six hundred dollars (and YES, prices can get outrageous!) - there is no 'set number'. And 1-800-Flowers (like most floral wire companies) use florists from all around the country to fulfill orders. The flowers used in a sixty-five dollar arrangement at one flower shop might differ considerably from that of another. It all depends on the market being served. Seasonal changes also cause fluctuations in arrangement types. So the answer to your question would be that 1-800-Flowers offers an endless variety of sixty-five dollar floral arrangements.

What clothes do florists wear?

Asked by Wiki User

I have been in the floristry industry for about 7 months now, and am really bored of wearing jeans and boots all the time! Clothes have to be practical, and layering is essential as its always freezing! I consider myself to be fashionable, and suit the majority of styles, I always feel nice when I'm not at work, as I can happily flit around in pumps and a dress. Does anyone have any ideas on fashionable but practical clothes?
