There are 6 areas of land for sale. Land 1 has 306 acres and Land 2 has 123 acres. Cattle used to stay on Land 3 and pigs on Land 4. A rancher is looking to buy some land for his horses and cattle. Land 3 has 451 acres and is right next to Land 1. Land 1 and 4 are worth $1,000 an acre. Land 3 and 6 are $1,250 an acre. Taxes are already included in the price per acre. The rancher owns 11 horses and 28 cattle and wants at least 500 acres. If the rancher buys Land 1 and 3, how much does he need to pay? Do not include $ in your answer. For example, if your answer is $19, enter 19.
