Combines Math problem for group

... 590 buschel.... I hope.

Yep, I agree with 495.

1495 bu if on 20 " rows.

30 inch rows

1000 bushel cart 30 inch rows

It will take 5.5 minutes to fill the 1000 bushel cart. Combine, at the speed and width you suggest, will cut 90 bushels _ minute, or 500 bushels in 5.5 minutes. Tank on the combine would have to be 500 bushels. Ed in MT

No kidding! How did you get thatIJ I got totally different answer, but it's hard, I had to convert everything to kilometres and tonnes first....;-)

Yeah, and will this combine have 2 engines or 3IJ

Ed, how did you get to 90 bu_minIJ I had to convert everything to tonnes and metres (with some help from you, if that might remind you who I am....) and made a ballsup somewhere. Well, at least I had the right idea...

Hi Marius, 43,560 square feet in an acre. 5280 feet in a mile. 18 rows @ 2.5 feet = 45 feet. 5,280 X 45 X 5 mph = 1,188,000 sq ft _hr. or 27.273 acres _ hr X 200 = 5,455 bu _hr 5455 divided by 60 minutes = 90 bu _ min. Ed in MT
