Two combines are able to harvest 320 acres of crops in a certain amount of time. How many acres will (a)3, (b)4, (c)6 and (d)7 combines harvest if they work at the same rate for this amount of time?
terrible that is super wrong
Two combines can harvest 320 acres of wheat in a certain amount of time. Assuming all combines work at the same rate, how many acres of wheat can 6 combines harvest in the same amount of time?
Firstly, you have to find the unit rate. To do the unit rate, you have to do 320/2=160.
Since 160 is the unit rate, do 6*160=960.
I hope this helps!
what is the correct answer bobpursley?
WRONG!

Ur things are wrong i tried
To find out how many acres each number of combines can harvest, you can divide the total number of acres by the number of combines.
(a) To find out how many acres 3 combines can harvest, divide the total number of acres (320) by the number of combines (2):
320 acres ÷ 2 = 160 acres
Therefore, 3 combines can harvest 160 acres.
(b) To find out how many acres 4 combines can harvest, divide the total number of acres (320) by the number of combines (2):
320 acres ÷ 2 = 160 acres
Therefore, 4 combines can also harvest 160 acres.
(c) To find out how many acres 6 combines can harvest, divide the total number of acres (320) by the number of combines (2):
320 acres ÷ 2 = 160 acres
Therefore, 6 combines can also harvest 160 acres.
(d) To find out how many acres 7 combines can harvest, divide the total number of acres (320) by the number of combines (2):
320 acres ÷ 2 = 160 acres
Therefore, 7 combines can also harvest 160 acres.
In summary:
(a) 3 combines can harvest 160 acres.
(b) 4 combines can harvest 160 acres.
(c) 6 combines can harvest 160 acres.
(d) 7 combines can harvest 160 acres.
sorry Sophia but bobpursley is right
The answer is 960
rate=160acres/combine
amount=rate*NumberCombines
