Answer-

The length of GE is 10 units.

Solution-

Mid-Point Theorem-

The line segment connecting the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and is congruent to one half of the third side.

As given,

EX = XF, so X is the mid point of EF

GY = YF, so Y is the mid point of GF

Hence, XY is the line segment connecting the midpoints of two sides of a triangle.

Applying the theorem,

GE = 2XY = 2×5 = 10 units

A farm had 480 acres more wheat than corn. Let use "W" to represent the Wheat and let use "C" to represent the corn. Hence, we have below:
W=C+480

The farmers collected 80% of the wheat and 25% of the corn and the area of the wheat is 300 acres less than the area of the corn:
W-0.8W=C-0.25C+300
0.2W=0.75C+300
We have two equations, two unknowns:
0.2(C+480)=0.75C+300
0.2C+96=0.75C+300
0.55C=294
C=534.55
