5r=75
r=75/5=15
3f=75
f=75/3

4d=75
d=75/4
d=18.9
5r+3d+4f+75

Answer:

75 bouquets cost = (375r) + (225d) + (300f)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the answer as follows:

1 bouquet = (5 roses) + (3 daisies) + (4 bundles of green filler)

Costs:

1 rose = r

1 daisy = d

1 bundle of green filler = f

Cost for making 1 bouquet:

1 bouquet cost = (5 roses)r + (3 daisies)d + (4 bundles of green filler)f

1 bouquet cost = (5r) + (3d) + (4f)

Cost for making 75 bouquets:

75(1 bouquets cost) = 75 ((5r) + (3d) + (4f))

75 bouquets cost = (375r) + (225d) + (300*f)
