Question

A tree planter can plant 40 trees in 8 hours.

How many trees can a tree planter plant in 2
hours?

Answer 1

He can plant 10 trees in 2 hours.

Explanation:

First you need to find the number of trees he can plant in an hour.

For this purpose, we will divide 40 by 8 to get an idea about how many he can plant in an hour.

Trees planted in an hour = 40/8 = 5

Now for 2 hours = 5*2 = 10 trees.
