Answer:

14.4acres

Step-by-step explanation:

The total acres is 48 acres, which is 100%

when you add percentage of others, wheat and cotton you get 70%.

which leaves you with 30%

therefore, 30% of the land is for corn..

which is 14.4 acres.

0.30 x 48acres= 14.4 acres

Answer:

14.4 acres for corn (if you need to round, it's 14 acres.)

Step-by-step explanation:

40% = 19.2 acres

20% = 9.6 acres

10% = 4.8 acres

40 + 20 + 10 = 70

100-70 = 30

30% = 14.4 acres
