Answer 2

Answer:

Trees after three years are $19357$.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that there are $15625$ trees in a forest.

The target of increasing the number of trees is decided to be $8%$ per year.

We need to calculate number of trees after three years.

Concept of simple interest will be used here.

Principal is $P=15625$₹

Rate is $R=8%$ per annum

Time is $T=3$ years

Simple interest is calculated as

$SI=\frac{P*R*T}{100}$

$SI=\frac{15625*8*3}{100} =1244*3$

$SI=3732$₹

Total number of trees are $15625+3732$

$=19357$
