Answer:

14 more flower would bloom if 21 more tulip bulb is planted.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given ratio for tulip bulbs and flowers is 15:10.

Now, finding number of flower to bloom if 21 tulip bulb are planted.

Assume if 21 tulip bulbs are planted then number of flower would bloom be"x"

ratio given: [tex]\frac{Tulip\ bulbs}{ Flower} = \frac{15}{10} = \frac{21}{x}[/tex]

Cross multiplying the ratio to get:

⇒x= [tex]\frac{21\times 10}{15} = \frac{210}{15}[/tex]

∴[tex]x= 14\ flowers[/tex]

Hence, 14 flowers would bloom if 21 tulip bulb are planted.

If total tulip bulb is [tex]15+21= 36[/tex], then [tex]10+14= 24\ flowers[/tex] would bloom.
