Question

There are 250 trees in a park. Of these trees, 6 % are birch trees. How many birch trees are in the park?

Accepted Answer

Choice B is correct. It's given that there are 250 trees in a park and of these trees, 6 % are birch trees. The number of birch trees in the park can be calculated by multiplying the number of trees in the park by 6 100 . Therefore, the number of birch trees in the park is 250 6 100 , or 15 . Choice A is incorrect. This is the percentage of trees in the park that are birch trees, not the number of birch trees in the park. Choice C is incorrect. This is 30 % , not 6 % , of 250 . Choice D is incorrect and may result from conceptual or calculation errors.
