    Step-by-step explanation:

    Red : Yellow : White

    5 : 2 : 6

    The question states that there are 24 more red roses bushes than white rose bushes.

    This means that the difference between red and yellow is 24

    3 in the ratio chart represents 24

    3:24 = 1:8

    Then substitute this into white bushes

    1 : 8

    x6

    6 : 48

    There are 48 white rose bushes

    Step-by-step explanation:

    no. of red rose bushes = 5x

    no. of yellow rose bushes = 2x

    5x - 2x = 24

    3x = 24

    x = 24/3

    x = 8

    no. of white rose bushes = 6x = 6*8 = 48
