Question

A farmer has 890 acres of land. She grows crops on 70% of her land. How many acres DO NOT have crops?

Answer 1

Answer:

267 acres

Step-by-step explanation:

70% has crops so 100-70 = 30

30 % does not have crops

890 * 30 %

890 * .30

267 acres

Answer 2

Answer:

267 acres of land have no crops.

Step-by-step explanation:

% without crops:

$= (100 - 70)\% \\ = 30\%$

acres with no crops:

$= 30\% \times 890 \\ = \frac{30}{100} \times 890 \\ \\ = 267 \: acres$
