Answer:

16 acres

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the operating cost for 1 acre.  Find that by dividing $551,520 by 20 acres.  That gives us $27,576 per acre.  Now we can set up a proportion to solve for the number of acres that have an operating cost of $441,216:

\frac{cost}{acre}:\frac{27,576}{1}=\frac{441,216}{x}

Cross multiply to get:

27576x = 441216 so

x = 16

We did not have to find the cost per acre to solve this.  We could have set up the proportion with $551,520 on the top of the ratio and 20 on the bottom and we would still have gotten the same answer.  I just figured the numbers wouldn't be as large if we divided to find the cost per unit.

olasank [31]
<span>Let's say you divide 25 by 4.  You will get a quotient 6, but have that remainder of 1.  You could also divide 37 by 6, and likewise get a quotient of 6, with a remainder of 1.  The difference is that the remainders are not truly the same.  The first remainder is 1 part out of 4, but the second remainder is 1 part out of 6</span>
