In the wildwood Cory park the number of maple trees ash trees and elm trees are in the ratio 2:5:8 if there are 54 more elm trees than maple trees how many ash trees are in the park

Step-by-step explanation:

the number of maple trees ash trees and elm trees are in the ratio 2 : 5 : 8

Let the number of maple trees be 2x

Let the number of ash trees be 5x

Let the number of elm trees be 8x

If there are 54 more elm trees than maple trees, then they can be represented as

8x - 2x = 54

6x = 54

x = 9

The number of ash trees = 5x = 5 * 9 = 45 trees
