उत्तर

Here, P = Number of trees initially = 40,000

A = Number of trees after 3 years

R = Rate of increase of number of trees per year = 5 %

N = 3 years

A = P `(1 + "R"/100)^"N"`

= 40000 `(1 + 5/100)^3`

= 40000 `(1 + 1/20)^3`

= 40000 `(21/20)^3`

= 46305

Hence, the expected number of trees after 3 years is 46,305.
