1 (a) An orchard has 1250 trees.

The trees are in the ratio apple : pear : cherry = 12 : 9 : 4.

(i) Calculate the number of apple trees.................................................. [2]

(ii) Last year in the orchard, the mean mass of fruit produced was 64 kg per tree.

Calculate the total mass of fruit produced last year.

Give your answer in tonnes.
[1 tonne = 1000 kg]...................................... tonnes [2]

(iii) Last year, the mean mass of pears produced was 54 kg per tree.
This was a decrease of 10% on the mean mass of pears produced per tree from the year before.

Calculate the mean mass of pears produced by each pear tree the year before.
