On her breakfast tray, Aunt Lily had a little vase of flowers--a mixture of primroses and celandines. She counted up the petals and found there were 39. "Oh, how lovely!" she said, "exactly my age; and the total number of flowers is exactly your age, Rose!"
How old is Rose?
Primroses have five petals on each flower.
Celandines have eight petals on each flower.. |
