Question

On a small island, 63 people live on 21 acres of land. If another 42 people move to the island how many acres will the 105 people live on?

Answer 1

Hey there!

If 63 people live on 21, acres, that means that 63/21 = 3, so every 1 acre is 3 people. So we can divide 105/3 and we get 35, which means 105 people will live on 35 acres.

Have a great day!
