Answer:

195 plants (verified) ✅

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use a proportion to solve this.

x/y = x/y

let x = the number of families in each case

let y = the number of plants in each case

Since we don't know the second y, we will leave that as y and solve for it.

50/150 = 65/y

Cross-multiply

50y = 9750

Divide

195  = y

Now, we can check this by substituting the value of y back into the equation and seeing if both sides equal.

50 (195) = 9750

9750 = 9750 ✅
