Answer:

30 petunias

Step-by-step explanation:

p=petunias

0.25p +12 = 0.15p + 15

-0.15p          -0.15 p                 Subtract 0.25 with 0.15

0.10p + 12 = 15

           -12    -12                       Subtract 15 with 12

0.10p = 3                                 Divide 0.10p with 3

p=30
