Oak trees line both sides of a street for a length of 4/10 of a kilometer. If there is 15 meters of space between the trees, and each tree is 1 meter wide, how many trees are there along the street? Choose the correct answer
A) a)	26 B) b)	23 C) c)	24 D) d)	44 E) e)	46
There is a gap of 15 m between every 2 trees , each tree is 1 m wide.   4/10 of 1 km = 400 m   Lets assume that x trees are planted So equation is   x*1 +(x-1)*15 = 400   Solve for x and we get x = 26, answer is a)	26
