If there are 36 potato plants, and they are in 4 even rows, that means that there is 9 in each column because 9 x 4 is 36. Since 7 of them were eaten by the sheep and the goat, that means that there are 2 leftover in that row that the sheep and goat got to since 9-7 is 2.
A = 5 + t
t + 3 = 2/3a
t + 3 = 2/3(5 + t)
t + 3 = 10 + 2t / 3
3t + 9 = 10 + 2t
t = 1
a = 5 + 1
a = 6
