In a large backyard, there are 4 times as many shrubs as trees. altogether, there are 40 trees and shrubs. how many trees are in the yard? how many shrubs?

Please mark me brainliest and I hope this helped!

Trees: 8

Shrubs: 32

Step-by-step explanation:

If there are 4 times as many shurbs as trees, then in total, we should split it into 5 parts. So we should divide 40 by 5. That gives us 8, so there are 8 trees. Shrubs is 4 times as much, so there are 8 times 4 shrubs which is 32 shrubs.
