Correct option is C. He has 225 acres of land .

Let the Number of acres of land Roy have = x

As he planted corn on 1/5 of his land,

Number of acres of his land planted with corn = 1/5 × Number of acres of land Roy have

= x/5

As he planted 45 acres of his land with corn,

⇒ x/5

= 45

⇒x = 45 × 5

⇒x = 225

Therefore, number of acres of land Roy have is 225 .
