The farmer's load was heavier. His hired help only carried two sacks, while the farmer carries one sack, but his sack is a sack of grain. The hired help only carried 2 sacks - both empty.

The farmer carried more. His helper carried only two sacks, apparently empty, while he carried a sack full of grain.

How many hired-help does the farmer have?
Did the hired-help carry full sacks or not?
