Question 3 A rectangular coconut grove is 100 m long and 50 m wide. If each coconut tree requires 25 sq m, what is the maximum number of trees that can be planted in this grove?Now, Maximum Number of Trees that can be planted = (𝑨𝒓𝒆𝒂 𝒐𝒇 𝒓𝒆𝒄𝒕𝒂𝒏𝒈𝒖𝒍𝒂𝒓 𝒄𝒐𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒖𝒕 𝒈𝒓𝒐𝒗𝒆)/(𝑨𝒓𝒆𝒂 𝒐𝒏𝒆 𝒕𝒓𝒆𝒆 𝒓𝒆𝒒𝒖𝒊𝒓𝒆𝒔) Area of Rectangular Coconut grove Length of grove = 100 m Breadth of grove = 50 m Area of grove = Length × Breadth = 100 × 5 = 500 m2 Now, Maximum Number of Trees = (𝐴𝑟𝑒𝑎 𝑜𝑓 𝑟𝑒𝑐𝑡𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑢𝑙𝑎𝑟 𝑐𝑜𝑐𝑜𝑛𝑢𝑡 𝑔𝑟𝑜𝑣𝑒)/(𝐴𝑟𝑒𝑎 𝑜𝑛𝑒 𝑡𝑟𝑒𝑒 𝑟𝑒𝑞𝑢𝑖𝑟𝑒𝑠) = 𝟓𝟎𝟎/𝟐𝟓 = 20 Therefore, Maximum number of trees that can be planted in this grove is 20 Therefore, Maximum number of trees that can be planted in this grove is 20
