A farmer owns a total of 9 9 acres of land. The land is separated into 7 equally sized sections. How many acres are in each section? Write your answer as a mixed number in simplest form.

Respuesta :

The total area of land is A = 9 1/3 acres.

Determine the area of each section.

[tex]\begin{gathered} a=\frac{9\frac{1}{3}}{7} \\ =\frac{28}{3\cdot7} \\ =\frac{28}{21} \\ =1\frac{7}{21} \\ =1\frac{1}{3} \end{gathered}[/tex]

So area of each section is 1 1/3 acres.
