What is unitary method?
"It is a method of finding the value of a single unit, and based on that value we can find the required value."
For given question,
A farmer can plant 45 kg of peanuts on 4,000 square meters of land.
Using unitary method,
[tex]\frac{4000}{45}\\\\=88.8888 \\\\\approx 88.89[/tex]
This means, a farmer can plant 1 kg of peanuts on 88.89 square meters of land.
We need to find the number of peanuts ( x ) he could plant on 8,500 square meters of land.
Here, 1 kg = 88.89 square meters
     x kg = 8500 square meters
[tex]\Rightarrow x=\frac{8500}{88.89}\\\\ \Rightarrow x = 95.6~kg[/tex]
Therefore, the number of peanuts ( x ) he could plant on 8,500 square meters of land = 95.6 kg
