When planting a forest, the number of jambhul trees planted was greater than the number of ashoka trees by 60. If there are altogether 200 trees of these two types, how many jambhul trees were planted ?

Let the number of ashoka trees planted in the forest = x
Then, the number of jambhul trees planted in the forest = x + 60
According to question, total number of ashoka and jambhul trees planted in the forest is 200.
$$\begin{gathered} \Rightarrow x+\left(x+60\right)=200 \\ \Rightarrow x+x+60=200 \\ \Rightarrow 2x+60=200 \\ \Rightarrow 2x=200-60 \\ \Rightarrow 2x=140 \\ \Rightarrow x=\frac{140}{2} \\ \Rightarrow x=70 \end{gathered}$$
Number of ashoka trees planted in the forest = x = 70
Number of jambhul trees planted in the forest = x + 60 = 70 + 60 = 130
