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 20 acres 20 acres 15 acres 15 acres 7 acres 7 acres 5 acres

Answer 1

To find the area of the land required for planting 20,000 seeds at a density of 4,000 seeds per acre, you can use the formula:

\[ \text{Area (in acres)} = \frac{\text{Total number of seeds}}{\text{Planting density (seeds per acre)}} \]

Substituting the values:

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

So the correct answer is 5 acres.
