A farmer is planting a row of corn. Each plant is 3 feet apart. If he is planting 23 how far apart is the first and last plant?
3x23=?
66 feet
To find out how far apart the first and last plant are, we can multiply the distance between each plant by the total number of plants minus one.
In this case, each plant is 3 feet apart and the farmer is planting 23 plants. So the distance between the first and last plant would be (23 - 1) x 3 feet.
To calculate this, we subtract 1 from the total number of plants (23 - 1 = 22) and then multiply it by the distance between each plant (22 x 3 = 66).
Therefore, the first and last plant will be 66 feet apart.
