A normal lemon tree produces 60 lemons per year. Jim has specially engineered lemon trees that produce 50% more lemons per year. He has a grove that is 50 trees by 30 trees. How many lemons does he produce in 5 years? Let's answer step by step:

Each tree produces 60 * .5 = 30 more lemons than normal. So they each produce 60 + 30 = 90 lemons. He has 50 * 30 = 1500 trees. So every year he produces 1500 * 90 = 135000 lemons. That means he produces 135000 * 5 = 675,000. The answer: 675000.
