Answer: 24 coconuts

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of coconuts that were originally on the tree be represented by x.

The information given in the question can then be presented to an equation as:

25% × x = 6

25/100 × x = 6

0.25 × x = 6

0.25x = 6

x = 6/0.25

x = 24

Therefore, 24 coconut were originally on the tree.
