In the local forest preserve, there are a certain number of trees. On each of these trees there are a certain number of birds. The local gamekeeper knows that there are as many birds on each tree as there are trees in the forest. He also knows that there are between 2000 and 2100 birds in total. How many trees are there?

it seems to be a rather small quantity of tree’s but it seems to fit.
is it 45 trees?
45trees with 45birds on each tree. = 2025 birds in total which is between 2000 and 2100.
seems easier to count the quantity of trees rather than birds.
44 trees with 44 birds would equal 1936 birds.
46 trees with 46 birds would equal 2116 birds.
both answers too high or too low.
45 trees is absolutely correct!
You are today’s winner.
45 trees total (45 birds per tree X 45 trees = 2025)
