Gursheen kaur. · Accepted Answer

Total flowers=1050

Out of 1050 flowers, the pink flowers are = $\frac{3}{10} * 1050 = 315$

the flowers are white = $\frac{2}{5} * 1050 = 420$

Now,

Total flowers = Pink flowers +white flowers +yellow flowers

1050=315+420+yellow flowers

1050=735 +yellow flowers

or

yellow flowers= 1050-735=315
