Afarmer grows two types of grain in his fields. he has a seed budget of $10,000.00 and has spent $4,200.00 to plant wheat seed so far. if barley seed costs $47.00 per acre to plant, what is the maximum number of acres of barley the farmer can plant and still be under budget?

124 acres
123 acres
212 acres
89 acres

The maximum number of acres of barley the farmer can plant and still be under budget would be of 123 acres.

Step-by-step explanation:

The farmer grows two types of seeds, with a budget of $10,000. He has spent $4,200 in wheat seed, and wants to know the maximum number of barley he is able to plant.

First of all, as $10,000 - $4,200 is equal to $5,800, that is the amount of money he is able to spend in barley seeds.

As every acre of barley seed costs $47 to plant, in order to know how many acres he can plant we have to do the following calculation:

5,800 / 47 = maximum of acres the farmer can plant

5,800 / 47 = 123.40

The maximum number of acres of barley the farmer can plant and still be under budget would be of 123 acres.
