You are buying 40 acres of farm land at a cost of $673,000.

What is the cost per acre?


What would the cost be for 60 acres?

You would have to do $673,000 by 40 acres which that equals $16,825. Then with that number multiply that by 60 and that equals $1,009,500

Cost per acre: $16,825
Cost for 60 acres: $1,009,500

Answer:

Each Acre costs $16,825

60 acres would cost $1,009,500

Explanation:

To find the cost of each acre, divide the total cost (673,000) by the number of acres being bought (40)

You're answer is the price of one acre therefore, to find the cost for 60 acres, multiply the price of one acre (16,825) by 60.
