Answer:

14.7 Trees

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve this using a proportion.

[tex]\frac{10.5}{5} = \frac{x}{7}[/tex]

10.5 x 7 = 73.5

5x = 73.5

x = 14.7

Now let's check the proportion.

[tex]\frac{10.5}{5} = \frac{14.7}{7}[/tex]

10.5 x 7 = 73.5

14.7 x 5 = 73.5

73.5 = 73.5 ✅

I'm always happy to help :)
