Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

What you need to do is take your 65% and put it over 100% like this: 65/100

Then, you take 2691 and put it into the denominator and put x on the top like this: x/2691

Then you need to put them equal to each other and cross multiply like this 65/100=x/2691

Multiply the 2691 by 65 and x by 100

to get 100x=2691(65)

Finally, multiply the 2691 by 65 and then divide that whole thing by 100 to get x.

x will be the land in acres and your final answer.

Good luck! Hope this was clear!
