Answer:

6 seeds will grow

Step-by-step explanation:

An easy way to simplify is like this

9/30 -> Find a common factor (3)

9 sprout per 30 planted

Divide both sides by GCF(3)

3/10

3 sprout per 10 planted

x/20 = 3/10

How do you change that 10 into a 20?

Multiply by 2 = 6/20

So, 6 seeds sprout per 20 planted
