Let's solve the problems step by step.

Problem 1: Sarah's Flowers

#### Part a)
- Sarah planted 4 rows of flowers.
- Each row has 5 flowers.
- To find the total number of flowers, we multiply the number of rows by the number of flowers per row:
\[
4 \times 5 = 20
\]
- Answer: Sarah planted 20 flowers in total.

#### Part b)
- Sarah wants to add 3 more rows, each with 5 flowers.
- First, calculate the number of flowers in the additional rows:
\[
3 \times 5 = 15
\]
- Now, add these 15 flowers to the original 20 flowers:
\[
20 + 15 = 35
\]
- Answer: After adding the new rows, Sarah will have 35 flowers in total.

Problem 2: Salim's Building Blocks

#### Part a)
- Salim has 6 boxes of building blocks.
- Each box contains 8 blocks.
- To find the total number of blocks, we multiply the number of boxes by the number of blocks per box:
\[
6 \times 8 = 48
\]
- Answer: Salim has 48 building blocks in total.

#### Part b)
- Salim wants to share the blocks equally with his two friends.
- This means the blocks will be divided among 3 people (Salim and his two friends).
- To find out how many blocks each person gets, we divide the total number of blocks by 3:
\[
48 \div 3 = 16
\]
- Answer: Each friend will receive 16 blocks.

Final Answers:

1. a) 20 flowers
b) 35 flowers
2. a) 48 blocks
b) 16 blocks

\boxed{20, 35, 48, 16}
