Answer 1

fraction of lemon trees =1/3

fraction of mango trees=1/8

therefore total fraction of mango and lemon trees=

$\frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{8}$

=

$\frac{8 + 3}{24}$

=

$\frac{11}{24}$

therefore fraction of banana trees=

$1 - \frac{11}{24}$

$\frac{24 - 11}{24}$

$\frac{13}{24}$

let total no of trees be

$x$

therefore

$\frac{13x}{24} = 117$

$x = 117 \times \frac{24}{13}$

$x = 9 \times 24$

$x = 216$

Therefore Total Number of Trees =

216
