Answer 1

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the second option. Mr. George has a land that measures 425 acres. If he divides it into half-acre plots, he would have twice the measurement he has number of plots and that would be 850 plots. Hope this answers the question.

Answer 2

The number of half acres plots are 850 .

Explanation:

As given

Mr. george owns 425 acres of land.

if he divides the land into half-acre plots .

Let us assume that the numbers of half - acres plots are x .

Than the equations are

`(1* x)/(2) = 425`

solving the above

x = 2 × 425

x = 850

Therefore the number of half acres plots are 850 .
