Answer:
C. 350 - acres of pumpkins
Step-by-step explanation:
The Uncle owns 510 acres, and wants 190 more acres of pumpkin than squash totaling at 510.
When looking at the possible answers D is automatically wrong since the Uncle only owns 510 acres. When I added A and C I got 510 as an answer;
160 + 350 = 510
So he wants 190 more pumpkin acres than squash so 160 represents the squash and 350 represents the pumpkin.
160 + 190 = 350
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Another way to find the answer is by taking 510 and subtracting 190 then dividing by two;
510 - 190 = 320
320 / 2 = 160
160 + 190 = 350
Then 160 would be squash and 350 would be pumpkin.
I hope this helps!
