To find the total number of acres of land used for growing corn and wheat, we need to add the area for growing corn to the area for growing wheat: 2 1/2 acres + 3 3/4 acres = 6 1/4 acres.
Therefore, the total area of land used will be 6 1/4 acres.
A farmer has 2 and 1/2 acres of land for growing corn and another 3 and 3/4 acres for growing wheat. If the farmer decides to combine the two plots of land for a new crop, how many acres of land will be used in total?
