Let's break down the solution step-by-step:
1. Identify the number of carrots grown in each year:
- In the year 2000, the farmer grew 186,503 carrots.
- In the year 2001, the farmer grew 245,091 carrots.
2. Understand the difference in growth:
- We are asked to determine how many more carrots were grown in 2001 compared to 2000.
3. Calculate the difference:
- Subtract the number of carrots grown in the year 2000 from the number of carrots grown in the year 2001.
[tex]\[
\text{Difference} = \text{Carrots in 2001} - \text{Carrots in 2000}
\][/tex]
[tex]\[
\text{Difference} = 245091 - 186503
\][/tex]
4. Result:
- The calculations show that the difference is 58,588.
Thus, the farmer grew 58,588 more carrots in the year 2001 compared to the year 2000.
