Question

April’s garden has 42 plants in each row. She has 2 rows of yellow corn and 20 rows of white corn.

Answer 1

Answer:

There are a total of 84 yellow corns and

840 white corns planted in the garden.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of plants in each row = 42

Number of rows of yellow corn = 2

Number of rows of white corn = 20

To find the total number of yellow corns planted in the garden, we need to add the number of plants in each row 2 times.

i.e. 42 + 42 = 84

OR

we can say the following:

Total number of yellow corns planted in the garden = Number of rows of yellow corn $\times$ Number of plants in each row

$\Rightarrow 2 \times 42\\\Rightarrow 84$

To find the total number of white corns planted in the garden, we need to add the number of plants in each row 20 times.

i.e. 42 + 42 + 42 + ....... + 20 times

OR

we can say the following:

Total number of white corns planted in the garden = Number of rows of white corn $\times$ Number of plants in each row

$\Rightarrow 20 \times 42\\\Rightarrow 840$

Hence, there are a total of 84 yellow corns and 840 white corns planted in the garden.
