Question

• A. 7024
• B. 7025
• C. 7026

Answer 1

The correct option is C 7026

Total mumber of tress planted in 2 hrs= 8,43,120

1 hr = 60 min
Number of minutes= $2\times 60$ = 120 minutes

Number of tress planted in 1 min $=\frac{\text{Total number of trees planted in 2hrs}}{\text{Number of minutes}}=\frac{843120}{120}$

Let's solve 843120 $÷$ 120 using long divison methodThe quotient = 7026 and the remainder =0
$8,45,675÷120$ = 7026 R 0
Hence,7026 tress are planted per minute.
