In an orchard, 16 (2/3) % of the trees are apple trees. If the number of trees in the orchard is 240, 3 find the number of other type of trees in the orchard.

Answer»

Let the number of apple trees be x

Number of trees in the orchard = 240

Number of apple trees = 16 (2/3) %

According to the given condition, 16 (2/3) % of 240 = x

= 16.66 % of 240 = x

x = (16.66/100) × 240

x = 40 trees

Number of other types of trees = Total number of trees – number of apple trees

= 240 – 40

= 200 trees
