Solution

The correct option is A 4402
Given,

Total butterflies on the tree = 6687

Number of butterflies that flew = 2285

So, number of butterflies left on the tree
= Total butterflies on the tree - Number of butterflies that flew
= 6687 – 2285

6 6 8 7
- 2 2 8 5

4 4 0 2

Therefore, 4,402 butterflies are left on the tree.
