The simple tree polynomials of the basic graphs with cyclomatic number 3are derived. From these results, explicit formulae for the number of decompositions of the graphs into forests with specified cardinalities are extracted. Explicit expressions are also given for the number of spanning forests and spanning trees in the graphs. These results complement the results given in [1]
