Answer 1

The real estate company buys 125 properties, each with 127 acres, for a total of 15,875 acres.

Step-by-step explanation:

The real estate company buys 125 properties, and each property contains 127 acres of land. To find the total number of acres the company buys, we can multiply the number of properties by the number of acres per property:

Total acres = Number of properties x Acres per property

Total acres = 125 x 127 = 15,875 acres
