A rectangular lot measures 150 feet wide by 200 feet deep. What is the area in acres? (1 acre = 43,560 sq ft)
A0.52 acres
B0.69 acres✓ Correct
C0.75 acres
D1.38 acres
Explanation
Area = 150 × 200 = 30,000 sq ft. Acres = 30,000 ÷ 43,560 = 0.688 acres, approximately 0.69 acres. Remember: 1 acre = 43,560 square feet. Multiply or divide as needed to convert between units.. The correct answer is 0.69 acres.. This is a common calculation on the Idaho real estate exam.
