Answer:  60

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Chef Morgan’s restaurant has 24 tables.

Fifteen of the tables each have one flower in a vase.

Then, the number flowers on these 15 tables =15       (1)

The number of tables left = 24-15=9

Also, the remaining tables have 5 flowers in each vase.

Then, the number of flowers on the remaining 9 tables =[tex]9\times5=45[/tex]

      (2)

Now, from (1) and (2) we have

The total number of flowers = 15+45=60

Hence, there are 60 flowers.
