Find the trees planted by section A​

Answer 1

Answer:

167

Step-by-step explanation:

let the no of trees planted by sec B =x

Now according to question,

no of trees planted by sec A =5+3x

together they planted tress =221

A+B=221

putting the values

5+3x+x=221

5+4x=221

4x=221-5

4x=216

x=216\4

x=54=B

A=5+3x=5+3×54

=5+162

=167

therefore no of trees planted by sec A=167
