Answer 2

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

Nathan bought 500 roses and 300 tulips for his garden.

After he planted his garden he had 82 roses and 61 tulips left over.

and (300-61) tulips.

That means he planted 418 roses

and 239 tulips.

Total plants he planted=657

Hence, total plants Nathan put in his garden is:

657
