Considering the area of a rectangle, it is found that the area of Bob's remaining plot of land is of 12.5 acres.

<h3>What is the area of a rectangle?</h3>

The area of a rectangle of length l and width w is given by the multiplication of these dimensions, that is:
A = lw.

In this problem, both the length and the width are divided in half, hence the proportion remaining is given by:

A = 0.5l x 0.5w = 0.25lw = 25% of the initial area.

Hence:

0.25 x 50 = 12.5.

The area of Bob's remaining plot of land is of 12.5 acres.
