Answer 2

Answer:

The number of fruit trees = 25 trees

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

• Some fruit trees and some non-fruit trees were planted.
• Number of non fruit trees is 2 more than 3 times the number of fruit trees.
• The Number of non-fruit trees planted is 77.

To Find:

• The number of fruit trees planted.

Solution: Let the number of fruit trees planted be x.

Therefore, the number of non-fruit trees planted= 3x + 2.

According To the question:

3x + 2 = 77

3x = 77 - 2

3x = 75

x = 75/3

x = 25

The number of fruit trees planted = x = 25 trees
