Explanation:

210 rows of sunflower

each row = 342 sunflowers

210 rows = 71820 sunflowers (210×342)

harvesting estimation= 71820 sunflowers in 18 hours

so 1 hour=?

71820÷18=3990. 3990×18=71820

that means, farmer Brown will be harvesting 3990 numbers of sunflower each hour.

have a great day :)
