After dividing the total cost that he paid by the cost of per acre we found that Arthur buys total 1200 acres.
In the given question,
Arthur paid $106,500 for a large lot.
He paid $88.75 per acre.
We have to find how many acres he buys.
Since the total cost that he paid is given and the cost of one acre that he paid is also given. So to find the how many acres he buys we divide the total cost that he paid by the cost of per acre.
Total cost that paid by Arthur = $106,500
The cost of per acre = $88.75
Total acres that he buy = Total cost that paid by Arthur/ The cost of per acre
Total acres that he buy = $106,500/$88.75
Total acres that he buy = 1200 acres
Hence, Arthur buys total 1200 acres.
