Answer:
The farmer owns [tex]9\frac{2}{7}[/tex] acres of land.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Size of each section of land = [tex]2\frac{1}{7}[/tex] acres
Number of sections land is divided into = [tex]4\frac{1}{3}[/tex] sections
To calculate the acres of land owned by farmer, we will multiply the number of sections and size of each section.
Total land owned by farmer = [tex]2\frac{1}{7}*4\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
Total land = [tex]\frac{15}{7}*\frac{13}{3} = \frac{195}{21} = \frac{65}{7}[/tex]
Total land = [tex]9\frac{2}{7}[/tex] acres
Hence,
The farmer owns [tex]9\frac{2}{7}[/tex] acres of land.
