Q. As part of an ongoing service project, the students at Danville High School recently spent an afternoon planting trees. They planted an average of 22 trees per participant. This month, they plan to do more planting, averaging 50%50\% fewer trees per participant this time. What will be the average this month?\newline____ trees
  1. Calculate new average: Calculate the new average number of trees per participant after a 5050% reduction.\newlineReasoning: If the original average was 22 trees per participant, reducing this by 5050% means participants will now plant half as many trees.\newlineCalculation: 2×0.5=12 \times 0.5 = 1
