To calculate the planting density, you can use the formula:
\[ \text{Planting Density} = \frac{\text{Total Number of Seeds}}{\text{Total Area in Acres}} \]
In this case:
\[ \text{Total Number of Seeds} = 10,000 \] \[ \text{Total Area} = 12 \text{ acres} \]
Now, plug the numbers into the formula:
\[ \text{Planting Density} = \frac{10,000 \text{ seeds}}{12 \text{ acres}} \approx 833.33 \text{ seeds per acre} \]
None of the provided answers (20,000, 25,000, 5,000, or 15,000 seeds per acre) seem to reflect the correct planting density calculation of approximately 833.33 seeds per acre. Please ensure you review the context and the data if this was a misunderstanding.
