Question

This year, a farmer planted 400,000 corn stalks. Last year the farm planted 275,650 corn stalks. How many more corn stalks did the farm plant this year than last year?

Answer 1

You want to subtract 400,000 - 275,650.
400,000 - 275,650 = 124,350
124,350 more corn stalks were planted this year than last year.
