Holly uses 7 sheets of tissue paper to make one flower. If she bought a packagewith500 beets, about how many flowers will holly be able to make?

Let f = number of flowers that Holly can make.

7/500 = 1/f

Solve for f.

500 (1) = 7f

500 = 7f

500/7 = f

71.4285714286 = f

The word ABOUT means to approximate the decimal answer.

So, rounding the decimal number to the nearest ones, we get 71.

Answer: About 71 flowers
