Answer:
Total biomass of the tree[tex]= 75000[/tex]kilograms
Explanation:
Let us assume that total biomass of tree is "X" Kilograms.
Given
Biomass of insects [tex]= 3000[/tex] kilograms
Biomass of insects as a percentage of biomass of tree [tex]= 4[/tex]%
Thus,
Mathematically the relation between the biomass of tree and insects can be written as
[tex]4[/tex]% of [tex]X = 3000[/tex] Kilogram
[tex]\frac{4}{100} * X = 3000\\X = \frac{3000* 100}{4} \\X = 3000*25\\X = 7500[/tex]Kilograms.
Total biomass of the tree[tex]= 75000[/tex]kilograms
