Find the total number of orchid species in Malaysia.
Answer to Problem 1GP
The total number of orchids in Malaysia is more than 3000.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Mouni Kinabalu in Malaysia has the greatest concentration of wild orchids on Earth. It contains more than 750 species, or about one − fourth of all orchid species in Malaysia.
Concept Used:
The number of collection of orchids contains more than 750 species, or about one − fourth of all orchid species in Malaysia.
Translate the statement into an inequality equation.
Let the total number of orchids in Malaysia is x.
Equation:
Calculation:
Equation:
Solve for x, the total number of orchids in Malaysia.
So, the total number of orchids in Malaysia is more than 3000.
Thus, the total number of orchids in Malaysia is more than 3000.
