A farmer planted cabbages in rows. Each row had 36 cabbages planted at regular intervals of 0.5m.what is the length of each row?
Assuming there are cabbages at each end, there are 35 spaces in each row.
35 * 0.5 = ?
Not true👿👎🏻

To find the length of each row, we need to calculate the total distance covered by the cabbages in one row.
The distance between each cabbage plant is given as 0.5 meters. Since there are 36 cabbages in one row, we need to calculate the total distance covered by 36 cabbages.
To calculate the total distance covered, we can use the formula:
Total distance = Distance between each cabbage x (Number of cabbages - 1)
In this case, the distance between each cabbage is 0.5 meters and the number of cabbages per row is 36. Therefore, the calculation would be:
Total distance = 0.5 meters x (36 - 1)
Total distance = 0.5 meters x 35
Total distance = 17.5 meters
Therefore, the length of each row is 17.5 meters.
