Answer» Answer: 25 trees Step-by-step EXPLANATION: LET the number of fruit trees be x Therefore the number of non-fruit trees 3x + 2 => x + 3x + 2 = 102 => x + 3x = 102 - 2 => x + 3x = 100 => 4x = 100 => x = 100/4 => x = 25

Answer:

25 trees

Step-by-step EXPLANATION:

LET the number of fruit trees be x

Therefore the number of non-fruit trees 3x + 2

=> x + 3x + 2 = 102

=> x + 3x = 102 - 2

=> x + 3x = 100

=> 4x = 100

=> x = 100/4

=> x = 25
