Explanation:

Given

`Region\ A = 81218576`

Required

The acres owned by the government

The question is incomplete as the proportion (p) owned by the government is not given.

However, the formula to use is as follows:

`Govt = p * Region\ A`

Assume the proportion is 28%, the equation becomes

`Govt = 28\% * 81218576`

`Govt = 22741201.28`

The acres owned by the government will be 22741201.28
