Subject: Trying to guesstimate the yield


SE SD
I know there is a formula,but I'm too dense to figure it out.
Any one care to take a stab at it.
Picked these six ears in a row, with my eyes closed I grabbed one and tookthe next five in the row. The middle sized ear has 40 kernels by 16.
The population is 27,000 on the planter, but will use 24,000 for figuring potential Yield.
Can some one give me a run down on how the math works?

Edit to add: my math says, 40x16 = 640
640 X 24,000= 15,360,000
15,360,000 / 80,000 ? = 192 bushels per acre...

Am I close..?
....... Not adjusting for test weight... :) hahaha
