Real Estate Math

A Wyoming section of land is divided into four equal quarters. How many acres is each quarter?

A40 acres
B80 acres
C160 acres✓ Correct
D320 acres

Explanation

One section = 640 acres. Each quarter (NE, NW, SE, SW) = 640 / 4 = 160 acres. This is why 160-acre parcels are so common in Wyoming land descriptions and why 160 acres was the original homestead claim allotment.
