Answer 2

Answer: you need 40 mango farms to produce 8,000,000 mangos

Explanation:

In the question, each number is repeated 3 times:

A mango farm contains 1250 mango trees

each mango tree produces around 160 mangos.

How many mango farms are needed to produce 8,000,000 mangos?

each mango farm produces 1250*160 mangos = 200,000 mangos.

So the number of farms needed to produce X mangos is equal to X divided by the amount of mangos that the a single farm produce

N = 8,000,000/200,000 = 40

So you need 40 mango farms to produce 8,000,000 mangos during the summer.
