Question

1. A farmer wants to prepare 8 acres of land for his horses. He wants to add trees so the horses have shade during the summer. He wants to add a tree for every 360 square feet of land. About how many trees can he add within his 8 acres of land? 

(1 acre = 43,560 square feet) 

Answer 1

Hi Ashley,

first of all, 8 acres convert to square feet

8 * 43560 = 348480 square feet

Farmer is considering adding one tree every 360 square feet of land so:



348480 feet square / 360 = 968 the number of trees

I hope it is useful,

Answer 2

1 acre = 43560 sq feet

8 acres = 43560 *8 = 348480 sq feet

348480/360 = 968

Therefore 968 trees could be planted in 8 acres of land

Answer 3

he can plant 968 trees
