Answer:

Option D. Divide the number of acres by the number of horses

Explanation:

Let

x-----> the number of acres for each horse

we know that

$x\geq1.8\ acres$ ------> inequality A

To find the number of acres for each horse, divide the number of acres by the number of horses

so

x=(23)/(12)= 1.9(acres)/(horse)

substitute the value of x in the inequality A

$1.9\geq1.8\ acres$ ------> is true

therefore

The farmer has enough acreage for 12 horses
