Question

At the Quartz Farm there are 1/4 as many lemon trees as there are orange trees. There are a total of 90 trees on the farm. The number of lemon trees on the farm is

A. 5

B. 18

c. 22

D. 72

E. 360

Answer 1

B.18

Step-by-step explanation:

let the no. of total orange trees be x

hence the no. of total lemon trees be 1x/4

so, x + 1x/4 = 90

5x = 360

x = 72

lemon trees = 1/4 × 72

= 18

B. 18

L=O/4

L+O = 90

O/4 + O = 90

(5/4)O = 90

O = (4/5)90 = 4(18) = 72

L = 72/4 = 18
