Question

Jake has 2.3 miles squared of farmland behind the bakery. He planted tomatoes on 0.3 of his land. On how many square miles did he plant tomatoes

Answer 1

We have that

Jake has -------------------------------- > 2.3 miles squared of farmland
He planted tomatoes on 0.3 of his land----------------- > this is the 30%
therefore

if 2.3 miles squared-------------------------- > 100%
    X----------------------------------------------- > 30%
X=30*2.3/100=0.69 miles squared

the answer is 0.69 miles squared
