Mrs. helio has 2 3/4 acres of farmland. she will plant corn on 1/4 of this land, potatoes on 1/12 of the land, wheat on 5/8 of the land and beans on the rest of the land.
how many acres of
corn, potatoes, wheat and beans will there be

2 3/4 acres is the same as 11/4 acres
To find how much of the land is beans, find how much is already taken up, and the rest is beans.
Farmland-Corn-Potatoes-Wheat=Beans
1-(1/4)-(1/12)-(5/8)=1/24

Corn: (1/4)x(11/4)=11/16 acres
Potatoes: (1/12)x(11/4)=11/48 acres
Wheat: (5/8)x(11/4)=55/32 acres or 1 23/32 acres
Beans: (1/24)x(11/4)=11/96 acres

D) the x-intercept represents adam's commission pay when he had zero total sales

Using the rise/run rule. you would get 2/6.simp. 1/3
