30 tons of rock cost 30(50)=$1800.
\n" ); document.write( "You then have $2500-$1800=$700 left to buy trees.
\n" ); document.write( " $\"30%2860%29%2BN%2884%29%3C2500\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"1800%2B84N%3C2500\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"84N%3C700\"$
\n" ); document.write( " $\"N%3C700%2F84\"$

\n" ); document.write( "You can buy at most 8 trees after you bought the rock. \n" ); document.write( "
