Complete question :

A builder has an 6-acre plot divided into 1/4 -acre home sites. How many 1/4 -acre home sites are there?

Answer:

24 home sites

Explanation:

Given :

Total size of land = 6 - acre

Size of each home site = 1/4 acre

Number of home sites obtainable from the 6-acre land :

Total size of land ÷ size of each home site ;

6 ÷ 1/4

6 * 4/1

= 24

Hence, 24 home sites are on the plot of land.
