Answer:

18.2%

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of trees in the wood = 420 + 160 + 300

                                                                = 880 trees

∴ The percentage of the oak trees = [tex]\frac{160}{880} * \frac{100}{1}[/tex]

                                                            = [tex]\frac{2 * 100}{11}[/tex]%

                                                            = [tex]\frac{200}{11}[/tex]%

                                                            = 18.181818...%

In 1 decimal place = 18.2%

Hope this helps!!
