Illiana grows corn and soy beans on her 64-acre farm. This year, she plans to plant 18 more acres of corn than of soy beans. How many acres of corn will she plant?

The answer to your question is 41 acres of corn.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Total area = 64 acres

She plants 18 more acres than beans

Corn = c

Beans = b

Process

1.- Write two equations to solve this problem

             c + b = 64            Equation l

             c = b + 18             Equation ll

2.- Solve by substitution, equation ll in equation l

             b + 18 + b = 64

             2b + 18 = 64

-Solve for b

             2b = 64 - 18

             2b = 46

               b = 46/2

               b  = 23

3.- Calculate c

             c = 23 + 18

             c = 41

4.- Conclusion

She planted 23 acres of beans and 41 acres of corn.
