If there are 43,560 square feet in an acre, and there are 7.5 gallons in a cubic foot, calculate gallons of irrigation water per square foot?​

Respuesta :

The gallons of irrigation water is 326,700 gallons per square foot

Given:

area of the land, A = 43,560 ft²/acre

7.5 gallons = 1 ft³

To find:

number of gallons per square foot

Note:

  • 1 acre = 43,560 ft²
  • 1 acre-foot = 43,560 ft³

The number of gallons per square foot is calculated as;

[tex]= \frac{43,560 \ acre}{ft^2} \times \ foot\times \frac{7.5 \ gallons}{ft^3} \\\\= \frac{43,560 \ acre-ft}{ft^2} \times \frac{7.5 \ gallons}{ft^3} \\\\= \frac{43,560 \ ft^3}{ft^2} \times \frac{7.5 \ gallons}{ft^3}\\\\= \frac{43,560 \ ft^3}{ft^3} \times \frac{7.5 \ gallons}{ft^2}\\\\=(43,560\times 7.5) \frac{gallons}{ft^2} \\\\= 326,700 \ \frac{gallons}{ft^2}[/tex]

Therefore, the gallons of irrigation water per square foot is 326,700 gallons per square foot.
