Answer:

0.1791 acres (rounded to 4 decimal places)

Step-by-step explanation:

67 pounds seeds 12 acre, the ratio can be written as:

Pounds : Acres = 67 : 12

Since, we want Acres PER POUND of seed, we need to divide Total Acres (12) by Total Pounds (67).

Note: per "quantity", we always divide by that "quantity".

So, we have:

[tex]\frac{12}{67}=0.1791[/tex]

So, 1 pound of seed cover 0.1791 acres of land (rounded to 4 decimal places for accuracy)
