Answer:

There are 30 onions planted in each row

Step-by-step explanation:

PROBLEMS:

Joseph planted 600 onions equally in 20 rows. How many onions were planted in each rows?

UNDERSTAND:

• Total onions planted: 600 onions
• Rows with equal quantity of onions: 20 rows
• What is asked: Quantity of onions in each row .

PLAN:

• Distribute the total quantity of onions equally to each row.
• To do this, divide the total quantity of onions by the quantity of rows to get N, the quantity of onions each row.
• Equation: N= 600÷20

SOLVE:

N=600÷20

N=60÷2

N= 30

CHECK AND LOOK BACK:

• The inverse of division is multiplication
• To check, multiply the quantity of onions in each row by the total quantity of rows

N×20= 600

30×20= 600

600=600 (true and correct)

And if Joseph decided to plant atleast 100 onions in each row, will its not distibuted equally
