Answer:

1656 acres left
644 acres sold
$32,200,000

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The number of acres sold is ...

28% × 2300 = 0.28 × 2300 = 644

Then the number of acres Emmet has left will be ...

2300 -644 = 1656 . . . acres left

2. Emmet sold 644 acres.

3. At $50,000 per acre, the value of the land sold was ...

$50,000 × 644 = $32,200,000 . . . . paid by the developer

Triss [41]

To find the number of feet she jumped you have to divide 156 by 12 because there are 12 inches in a foot

So 156/12 =13
So she jumped 13 feet

Jadyn prepares a bag of candy before a road trip. The bag contains individual pieces of Skittles, M&Ms, Life Savers and Sour

kipiarov [429]

Given condition is- The bag contains individual pieces of Skittles, M&Ms, Life Savers and Sour Patch Kids.

Let the total number of candies in the bag be = x

Then, Skittles are $\frac{1x}{2}$

Candies left = $x-\frac{x}{2}$ = $\frac{x}{2}$

M&Ms are = $\frac{1x}{8}$

Now remaining candies are= $\frac{3x}{8}$

Now Life savers are = $\frac{9x}{32}$

Now adding all these 3 candies

$\frac{x}{2}+ \frac{x}{8}+\frac{9x}{32}$

= $\frac{29x}{32}$

Now the remaining candies sour patch will be =

$x-\frac{29x}{32} =\frac{3x}{32}$

Hence, sour patch kids are $\frac{3}{32}$
