Let's fill in the blanks and solve the problem step by step.

The Fram family plants vegetables on 8.2 acres of land. They want to divide the land into 4 equal sections to grow different types of vegetables. How many acres will be in each section?

Fill in the blanks and analyze the problem:

• Choose the appropriate operation.
We are dividing the land into equal sections, so we need division.

• We will perform the division as follows:
8.2 ÷ 4

• Solve the problem:
To divide 8.2 by 4, we can set it up as follows:

   4 ) 8.20
       - 8.0
       _______
         0.20
         - 0.20
         _______
           0.00

Thus, 8.2 ÷ 4 = 2.05

• Estimate to check the solution:
8 ÷ 4 = 2. (This helps confirm that our answer is reasonable since 8.2 is close to 8.)

Each section of land will have 2.05 acres.

Apologies for the oversight. The word that fits in that blank is "define."

So the complete sentence would read:

"Define and analyze the problem."
