An orchardist is to plant apple trees and pear trees in the ratio 3:11. If he intends to plant 150 apple trees, how many pear trees will he need to plant?

The ratio 2:11 means for every 3 apple trees they will plant 11 pear trees.

They are planting 150 apple trees. Divide total apple trees by the ratio: 150/3 = 50

Multiply that by the ratio of pear trees:

50 x 11 = 550

They need to plant 550 pear trees.
