Final answer:

To find the number of tractors in the warehouse, calculate 70% of 50 tractors, which is 35 tractors.

Explanation:

The tractors are in the warehouse, we need to calculate 70% of the 50 tractors. Here's how you can calculate it:

Convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing by 100: 70% / 100 = 0.7.
