The diagram shows the ratio of trees Maeve plants to the trees she harvests.

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

WEDNESDAY: 45 planted.

THURSDAY: 22 Harvested.

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information given in the problem, Maeve plants 5 trees for every 2 tree she harvests. Then the ratio can be expressed as following:

$5:2$ or $\frac{5}{2}$

Then, you can complete the values in the table as you can see below:

WEDNESDAY

$\frac{5}{2}=\frac{planted}{18}\\\\planted=\frac{18*5}{2}\\\\planted=45$

THURDAY

$\frac{5}{2}=\frac{55}{harvested}\\\\(harvested)(\frac{5}{2})=55\\\\harvested=\frac{55*2}{5}\\\\harvested=22$
