Hi there!

I believe your answer is:  

50 fields.

Here’s why:  

• The farmer has 200 rows total on his field. He plowed a fourth of the field.

⸻⸻⸻⸻

$\boxed{\text{Number of Fields Plowed:}}\\\\\rightarrow200*(\frac{1}{4})\\\\\rightarrow\boxed{50}$

⸻⸻⸻⸻

The farmer should of plowed 50 fields.

Answer 2

Answer:

He plowed 50 rows.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use proportions

1/4 = x/200

then cross multiply to find x.

4x=200  

Divide both sides by 4

x= 50

He plowed 50 rows.
