Question

There are 3 2 x − trees planted in each row of a rectangular parcel of land. if there are a total of 24 16 x − trees planted in the parcel, how many rows of trees are there in the parcel?

Answer 1

Number of trees planted in each row are 32x

total number of trees are 2416x

Now in order to determine how many rows are there , we will divide total number of trees by trees planted in each row.

so number of rows = 2416x divided by 32x

number of rows are 75.5

75 full rows and one half row.
