Correct Answer: 50000


Solution : Let us assume that the total number of trees in the garden is 100 units.
Coconut trees = 60 units
Mango trees = 60 × 0.25 = 15 units
Apple trees = 15 × 0.2 = 3 units
As per the question,
3 units = 1500
$\therefore$ 1 unit = 500
Total Number of trees = 500 × 100 = 50000
Hence, the correct answer is 50000.
