Question

Our school planned to plant 150 seedlings in a tree planting activity. However,

because of the rain, we were able to plant just 60% of the seedlings. How many
seedlings did we plant during that day?

Answer 1

90 seedlings

Explanation:

Total seedlings to plant = 150

Percentage of seedlings planted = 60%

How many seedlings did we plant during that day?

Number of seedlings planted for that day = 60% of 150

= 0.6 × 150

= 90 seedlings

Number of seedlings planted for that day = 90 seedlings
