Question

John has 2,700 seeds of corn to plant in 9 rows on his farm. Each row will have the same number of seeds. Part A Which basic fact can John use to find out how many seeds will be planted in each row?

Answer 1

Answer: A. We will divide total seeds by the number of total rows.

300 seeds will be planted in each row.

Explanation:

Given: Total seeds = 2700

Total rows = 9

If each row will have the same number of seeds.

Then, the number of seeds will be planted in each row = (Total seeds) ÷ (Total rows)

= 2700÷9

= 300

Hence, 300 seeds will be planted in each row.
