1 7/10 can be rewritten as 1.7

51 / 1.7 = 30 plants.

Rosalie has 30 plants.

The number of plants that Rosalie has in her garden is; 30 plants

Number of plants that Elizabeth has = 51 plants

Now, this figure is 17/10 times as many as what Rosalie has.

  • Thus, if the number of plants that Rosalie has is y. Then it means that;

(17/10)y = 51

Multiplying both sides by 10/17 using multiplication property of equality gives;

y = (51 × 10)/17

y = 30 plants

In conclusion, Rosalie had 30 plants in her garden.
