Answer: There are 6 sheeps grazing on each acre of the pasture.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we simply have to divide the number of sheep (250) by the number of acres (40).

Mathematically speaking:

250 sheep / 40 acres = 250/4= 6.25 sheep per acre ≅ 6 sheep

There are 6 sheep grazing on each acre of the pasture.
