Answer:
3.25 acres
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Total land owns by a farmer = [tex]9\frac{3}{4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{39}{4}[/tex]
Land separated into = 3 equal size
Question asked:
Acres are in each section = ?
Solution:
By applying simple division process,
Total land = [tex]9\frac{3}{4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{39}{4}[/tex]
Separated among = 3 equal size
Each section has = [tex]\frac{39}{4} \div 3[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{39}{4}\times\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{39}{12} = 3.25[/tex]
Therefore, acres are in each section = 3.25
