Sagot :

Answer:

5319

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two ways that the answer can be determined

Method 1

  1. Determine 10% of 5710.
  2. the answer gotten is subtracted from 5710

0.1 x 5710 = 571

5710 - 571 = 5319

Method 2

If the plants planted this year are 10% fewer, the plants this year are (100% - 10%) 90% of last year's plant

90% x 5710

0.9 x 5710 = 5319
