Well, youlook at the ratio and see that it is 3-6, total out of 9 flowers: 3pink and 6blue. You divide 72 by 9 to put it in the context of the ratio and get 8. Next you multiply 8 by 3, and you get 24/72 flowers are pink.

3+6=9, 9/72=8, 8*3=24 pink, 24/72 flowers are pink

The number of pink flowers is 24.

How to find the number of pink flowers?

If we look at the ratio and see that it is 3-6, total out of 9 flowers: 3pink and 6blue.

we divide 72 by 9 to put it in the context of the ratio and get 8.

Next, we multiply 8 by 3, and you get 24/72 flowers that are pink.

3+6=9, and 9/72=8,

So, 8*3=24 pink,

Therefore, 24 out of 72 flowers are pink.
