Answer:

Number of maple trees planted = 462

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of oak trees planted be x.

Given,

The number of maple trees is 11 times the number of oak trees.

Therefore,

Number of maple trees planted = 11 * x = 11x

Total number of trees planted = Number of oak trees planted + Number of maple trees planted

504 = x + 11x

504 = 12x

x = 504/12 = 42

Number of oak trees planted = x = 42

Number of maple trees planted = 11x = 11 * 42 = 462
