Answer 1

A harvest = 11 pound (Approx)

B harvest = 7 pound (Approx)

C harvest = 15 pound (Approx)

D harvest = 15 pound (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

A - 6

B - 4

C - 8

D - 8

Total harvest = 48 pound

Computation:

Total hour = 6+4+8+8

Total hour = 26 hour

A harvest = 48(6/26)

A harvest = 11 pound (Approx)

B harvest = 48(4/26)

B harvest = 7 pound (Approx)

C harvest = 48(6/26)

C harvest = 15 pound (Approx)

D harvest = 48(6/26)

D harvest = 15 pound (Approx)
