The advertisement said the land measured "3/4 of a mile by 3/4 of a mile". How many acres of land are for sale?

  1. 160 Acres

  2. 240 Acres

  3. 360 Acres

  4. 480 Acres

The correct answer is: 360 Acres

To determine the number of acres in the land measured as "3/4 of a mile by 3/4 of a mile," it's essential to first calculate the area in square miles and then convert that area into acres. Start by calculating the area in square miles: - The length and width of the land are both 3/4 of a mile. - Area = Length × Width = (3/4 mile) × (3/4 mile) = 9/16 square miles. Next, it's necessary to convert square miles into acres. One square mile equals 640 acres. Therefore, to convert the area calculated into acres: - Area in acres = Area in square miles × 640 acres/square mile = (9/16) × 640 = 360 acres. The calculation confirms that "3/4 of a mile by 3/4 of a mile" results in a total area of 360 acres. This is why the correct answer is recognized as 360 acres.
