Question

Farmer x plowed 168 acres of land. This was 21% of his farm. How many acres in his farm

Answer 1

x= total acres on farm

x * 21%= 168
move decimal 2 places to the left to go from percent to decimal form
x * 0.21= 168
divide both sides by 0.21
x= 800 acres

ANSWER: There are a total of 800 acres on the farm
