In May 1998, forest fires in southern Mexico and Guatemala spread smoke all the way to Austin. Those fires consumed forest land
liberstina [14]

Answer:

On average the size of the area of the forest burnt down every minute is 10117.14 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The rate consumption of forest land by the fire = 25200 acres/week

Therefore, we have;

The number of minutes in one week = 60 × 24 × 7 = 10080 minutes

Therefore;

The rate consumption of forest land by the fire per minute = 25200/10080 acres/minute = 2.5 acres/minute

The number of square meters in one acre is given as follows;

1 acre = 4,046.856 m²

Therefore;

2.5 acres/minute = (2.5 × 4,046.856 m²/(1 acre)) acres/minute = 10117.14 m²/minute

Which give;

The rate consumption of forest land by the fire= 10117.14 m²/minute.

The rate of the fire consumption of the forest is 10117.14 m²/minute.
