Answer:

7.5 pounds

Explanation:

To find the number of pounds of seed needed per acre, we need to divide the total number of pounds of seed by the number of acres. It takes 83 pounds of seed to completely plant an 11-acre field, so the number of pounds of seed per acre is 83 / 11 = <<83/11=7.5>>7.5 pounds of seed per acre.
