When 2,000 pounds of paper are recycled or reused, 17 trees are saved. How many trees are saved if 5,000 pounds of paper is recycled?

17 trees would be saved

SimplySnowy

if 2,000 pounds of paper equal 17 trees then multiply it by 2

4,000 pounds of paper = 34

if you divide 2,000 by 2 then you would get 1,000

1,000 pounds of paper = 8.5 trees

Now add them together:

34+8.5=42.5

5,000 pounds = 42.5 trees.

if you multiply it by 2 you'll get your answer for 10,000 pounds

10,000 pounds= 85 trees


Hope this helps! :3
