some sixty, and some a hundred
Jesus continues to describe the amount of grain that was produced. Ellipsis is used here to shorten the phrases but they can be written out. AT: "some produced sixty times as much grain and some produced a hundred times as much grain" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-ellipsis)
