Solution

The correct option is C 200 trees
Let the number of apple trees be x.
Number of trees in the orchard = 240
According to the given condition,
$16 \times \frac{2}{3} % of 240 = x$
$\Rightarrow 16.66 % of 240 = x$
$\Rightarrow x = \frac{16.66}{100} \times 240$
$\Rightarrow x = 40 trees$

Number of other types of trees = Total number of trees – number of apple trees
= 240 – 40
= 200 trees
