6 begonias

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are twelve flowers in each vase

1st vase=9 daffodils+3 begonias

=12 flowers

2nd vase=twice as many begonias

If the florist put twice as many begonias in the 2nd vase, this could mean she put twice as many begonias in the 1st vase

Which is,

2 * 3 begonias in the 1st vase

=6 begonias

Therefore, second vase consist of 6 begonias and 6 daffodils
