62% of trees were saved from a fire. If this represents 1420 trees, how many trees were originally in the forest?Round to the nearest whole tree.

Sagot :

Answer:

2290 trees

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Let the total number of trees be x

62% of the total trees x is 1420 trees

mathematically

62/100x= 1420

0.62x= 1420

divide both sides by 0.62

x= 1420/0.62

x= 2290.32

To the nearest whole tree= 2290 trees
