Katerina is a botanist studying the production of pears by two types of pear trees. she noticed that type a trees produced 20 percent more pears than type b trees did. based on katarina's observation, if the type a trees produced 144 pears, how many pears did the type b trees produce?

120 pears

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the  number of pears produced by Type B be x

Number of pears  produced by type A=144

  According to question

Type A produce 20% more pears than B

x+ x ×20%= 144

x+x×= 144

= 144

=144

x= 144×

x=120 pears

Hence, Number of pears produced by B= 120 pears

Hence, the correct answer is 120 pears

3 1/3 x 2 3/5 = 8 2/3

step-by-step explanation:

just multiply the first number by the second number to get your answer.
