You have to plant 20,000 seeds, and the planting density is 4,000 seeds per acre. Which of the following correctly calculates the area of the land where you are planting? (1 point) Responses 15 acres 15 acres 7 acres 7 acres 20 acres 20 acres 5 acres

Answer 1

To find the area of land needed to plant 20,000 seeds at a density of 4,000 seeds per acre, you can use the following formula:

\[ \text{Area (acres)} = \frac{\text{Total seeds}}{\text{Seeds per acre}} \]

Plugging in the values:

\[ \text{Area (acres)} = \frac{20,000 \text{ seeds}}{4,000 \text{ seeds/acre}} = 5 \text{ acres} \]

Therefore, the correct answer is 5 acres.
