Answer 1

x = 0.781 acres

Explanation:

The strawberry field covers 3 1/8 acres = 25/8 acres

New plants cover 1/4 of those acres

We need to find how many acres are covered by new strawberry plants. Let it is x.

`x=3(1)/(8)* (1)/(4)\\\\=(25)/(8)* (1)/(4)\\\\=0.781\ \text{acres}`

So, the new plant covers 0.781 acres by the strawberry plants.
