30 trees

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the policy:

8 trees are cut down 48 trees will be planted

If homeowner is going to cut down five trees on his property how many trees will be planted

Since :

8 trees cut down = 48 planted

5 trees cut down = X

Cross multiply :

8 * X = 48 * 5

8X = 240

X = 240/8

X = 30

Hence, 30 trees will need to be planted
