Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request in Swahili. Please answer in Swahili.

### Instruction:
Marge planted 23 seeds in her garden. Five of the seeds never grew into plants. A third of the remaining seeds grew, but the plants were eaten by squirrels and rabbits. A third of the number of uneaten plants were strangled by weeds. Marge pulled two weeds, but liked the flowers on one weed and let the plant grow as part of her garden. How many plants did Marge end up with?

### Response:
 Marge alikuwa na mbegu 23 - 5 = <<23-5=18>>18 zilizomea kuwa mimea.
Mijusi ililiwa mimea 18 / 3 = <<18/3=6>>6.
Kulikuwa na mimea 18 - 6 = <<18-6=12>>12 iliyobaki.
Magugu yalinyonga mimea 12 / 3 = <<12/3=4>>4.
Kulikuwa na mimea 12 - 4 = <<12-4=8>>8 iliyobaki.
Marge alihifadhi kichaka kimoja, hivyo alimaliza na mimea 8 + 1 = 9.
