Question

If you have a piece of land that is 7/8 of an day your well can pump enough water to irrigate 3/4 of an acre how days will it take to irrigate all of your land

Answer 1

It will take 6/7 of a day to irrigate all of your land.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how many days it will take to irrigate all of your land, you need to find the total amount of water needed. If your well can pump enough water to irrigate 3/4 of an acre in one day, then it can pump 3/4 of the land's size in one day. Since the piece of land is 7/8 of an acre, you can calculate the time it will take to irrigate the entire land by multiplying the time it takes to irrigate 3/4 of an acre by 8/7.

Let's do the math:

1. Day needed to irrigate 1 acre of land = 1 day
2. Day needed to irrigate 3/4 of an acre = 3/4 day
3. Day needed to irrigate 7/8 of an acre = (3/4) * (8/7) = 6/7 day

Therefore, it will take 6/7 of a day to irrigate all of your land.
