Question

Hi, could someone please help me with this thanks I don’t understand how they got this

Answer 1

First, we need to know the units they used. For every hectare, there are 2.47105 acres.

Next, we can set up a proportion to solve.

`\displaystyle \frac{\text{\$8,963}}{1 \;acre} =\frac{\text{\$x}}{2.47105 \;acres}`

Now, we will cross-multiply:

$8,963 * 2.47105 = x

x ≈ $22,148

I was $10 from the answer they ended up with, so I most likely used a different conversion unit factor than they did. However, the steps are still the same.
