Answer: 18 yellow flowers

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 9 flowers in each of the 6 rows. The total number of flowers planted is therefore:

= 6 rows * 9 flowers per row

= 54 flowers

A 1/3 of these flowers were yellow flowers so the number of yellow flowers planted is:

= 1/3 * 54

= 54/3

= 18 yellow flowers
