Solution

To solve this problem, we need to divide the total number of plants by the number of yards to see how many plants will be planted in each yard.

Step 1: Divide the total number of plants (425) by the number of yards (47).

425 ÷ 47 = 9 plants per yard with a remainder of 2 plants.

So, Frances will have 2 plants left to take home and plant in her own yard.

Therefore, the answer is C. 2 plants.
