For every two rows of sunflowers there were 8 rows of other flowers if there are 240 rows of flowers in the garden how many are not rows of sunflowers?

To solve this problem, we simply need to identify the variables, where sunflowers are "s" and other flowers can be "f". Since we know that there are 8 rows of "f" for every 2 rows of "s", we can find that s=4f. This can lead to the equation:

2s+8f=240; or, when substituted, 2(4f)+8f=240.

We can solve this equation as 16f=240, or f=15.

Now, we can put f into s=4f, and find that s=60. So we can subtract the total number of rows by 60 to find the total number of "f" rows.

240-60=180.

This means that there are 180 rows that are NOT sunflowers.

Hope this helps!
