Devin starts his own farm. He grows sunflowers and flax on the 240 acres he owns. This year he wants to plant 80 more acres of sunflowers than flax. How many acres of sunflowers will he need to grow? How many acres of flax?

Answer 1

Let’s assume the 240 acres is split 50/50 between sunflowers and flax, and he wants to plant another 240 acres plus the internet extra 80.

240/2 = 120
120 + 80 = 200
200 = sunflower
120 = flax

Answer 2

I didn’t mean to type internet 😅

Answer 3

If x acres of flax, then
x + x+80 = 240
