thank you!! henry2
C = Corn

S = Soybens

She wants to plant 110 more acres of soybeans than corn means:

S = C + 110

Total area = 300 acre so:

C + S = 300

Replace S = C + 110 in tis equation

C + C + 110 = 300

2 C + 110 = 300

Subtract 110 to both sides

2 C = 190

C = 190 / 2 = 95

95 acre of corn

S = C + 110 = 95 + 110 = 205

205 acre of soybens
