    There were 34 trees planted in March

    Step-by-step explanation:

    * Lats explain how to solve the problem

    - The number of trees planted by the alpine Nursery in April was

    three more than twice the number of trees planted by the nursery

    in March

    - Assume that the number of trees planted in March is x

    ∵ The number of trees in April was three more than twice the

    number of trees on March

    ∵ The number of trees on March was x

    ∴ The number of trees in April = 2x + 3

    - There were 71 trees planted in April

    ∵ The number of trees were planted on April was 71

    ∵ The number of trees in April = 2x + 3

    ∴ 2x + 3 = 71

    - Subtract 3 from both sides

    ∴ 2x = 68

    - Divided both sides by 2

    ∴ x = 34

    ∵ x represents the number of trees were planted in March

    ∴ There were 34 trees planted in March
