Final answer:

Emilio will have 67 full rows of trees when he plants 8,450 trees with 125 trees per row, after dividing the total number of trees by the number of trees per row and considering only the whole number of the result.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student is asking how many full rows of trees they will have if they plant 8,450 trees with each row containing 125 trees. To find the number of full rows, we divide the total number of trees by the number of trees per row.

So, we calculate 8,450 ÷ 125 which equals 67.6. Since you can't have a fraction of a row when it comes to planting trees, we focus on the whole number part of the quotient. That is 67 full rows of trees. The decimal part (.6) would represent the incomplete row, which we are not considering for this question.

Therefore, the correct answer is B. 67 full rows of trees.
