Answer:
800
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the total number of trees in the farm be 't'. Then,
The number of mango trees = 25% = (25/100)t
The number of banyan trees = 36% = (36/100)t
The number of orange trees = 19/2% = ((19/2)*100)t
The number of other trees = 236
∴ (25/100)t + (36/100)t + (19/200)t + 236 = t
LCM = 200
⇒( 50t + 72t + 19t + 7200) / 200 = t
⇒ 141 t +47200 = 200t
⇒ 200 t - 141 t = 47200
⇒ 59 t = 47200
⇒ t = 800
∴ The total number of trees in the farm is 800
