    It will take exactly 4.2 days to have 360 flowers in the field.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The total sunflower in the field that day was 234. The farmer plants a new crop of the seed. Each day 30 flowers bloom and 12 die in the field. The numbers of days it will take to have exactly 360 flowers in the field can be calculated below.

    Total flowers already in the field = 234 sunflowers

    Out of the new crop of seed planted by the farmer 30 flowers are added per day while 12 die per day. Therefore,

    let

    x = number of days

    360 = 234 + 30x

    Let us find x

    360 = 234 + 30x

    360 - 234 = 30x

    126 = 30x

    divide both sides by 30

    x = 126/30

    x = 4.2 days
