      of chili plants is 40% of the tomato plants, and the number of onion plants is 75% of the number of chili plants. If the number of onion plants is 180, what is the total number of plants on the farm?
      A 1091 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 1720 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 2620 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 1700 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Let total number of plants on the farm be 100x

      Number of tomato plants = 0.55 × 100x = 55x

      Number of chili plants = 0.40 × 55x = 22x

      Number of onion plants = 0.75 × 22x = 16.5x

      So, 16.5x = 180

      x = 10.91 (approx)

      Total number of plants on the farm = 100x = 1091
