The two fields cover an area of 79.9 hectares. The area of the first field is 2.4 times larger than the second. What is the area of each field.
The first field is? ha, 2.4 times more than the second field.
The second field is? ha.
The total area is 79.7 hectares.
Let x be three times the field.
Let 2.4x be the first field.
Let’s make an equation.
x + 2.4x = 79.9
3.4x = 79.9
x = 79.9: 3.4
x = 23.5 ha
23.5 hectares of the area of the second field.
Find the area of the first field, 1 field = 2.4x.
2.4 * 23.5 = 56.4 hectares – the first field.
Answer: The area of the first field is 56.4 hectares, the area of the second field is 23.5 hectares.
