GMAT Problem Solving (PS) | Re: In a garden, the ratio of roses to tulips is 3:2, and the ratio of

Answer is E. This is how I solved:

Given:

R(Roses): T(Tulips) = 3:2
T(Tulips):D(Daisies) = 4:5

Calculate: R(Rose): D(Daisies)

Since, Tulips is "common" between the ratios, but is in a different proportion, one needs to make it common in proportion as well. If we could multiply the ratio of R and T by 2 (that way the proportion of Tulips will be common in both the ratios), that would bring the commonality.

=> Multiplying R:T by 2 = 6:4

Now, Tulips are in the same proportion.
