Answer 2

Answer:

There are 6 number of seeds in each row:

Step-by-step explanation:

• The farmer had 24 tomato seeds and 42 brinjal seeds.
• Each row contained same type of seeds that means if tomato seeds were planted in one row, then the whole row filled with tomato seed. The same thing happened for brinjal seeds.
• As number of seeds in each row were equal, so we have to find the common factor of number of tomato and brinjal seeds.
• By factorizing:

           Tomato seeds = 24 = 2 × 2 × 2 × 3

           Brinjal seeds = 42 = 2 × 3 × 7

   The common factor is = 2 × 3 = 6

    So, in each row 6 seeds were planted.

• Number of rows required for tomato seeds = $\frac{24}{6}$ = 4 rows

        Number of rows required for brinjal seeds = $\frac{42}{6}$ = 7 rows.
