I'm pretty sure the answer is 2.9 because It's closer to 3 than 2

From what this number to solve it
Answer: 12 sections of 1/16 acre
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to find how many sections of 1/16 acre we can have in a total area of 3/4 acre.
This is equal to the quotient between 3/4 and 1/16
Remember that if we have two rational numbers (a/b) and (c/d) the quotient can be writen as:
(a/b)/(c/d) = (a/b)*(d/c) = (a*d)/(b*c)
The quotient we want to solve is:
(3/4)/(1/16) = (3/4)*(16/1) = (3*16)/4 = 12
Then you can have 12 sections of 1/16 acre
