Answer:

432

Explanation:

Okay so george and his dad plant 18 to a row and 3 rows an hour. So thats 3 rows of 18 an hour.

So first: Multiply 18 x 3 to find out how many trees they plant each hour.

18 x 3 = 54: So they plant a total of 54 plants each hour.

Next: to find out how many they planted in 8 hours multiply 54 plants x 8 hours

54 x 8 = 432 trees per 8 hours

Hope it helps :P
