With an application rate of 11.3 gallons per acre, how many acres can be treated with 147 gallons?

To determine how many acres can be treated with 147 gallons at an application rate of 11.3 gallons per acre, you perform a calculation using division. The formula for calculating the number of acres that can be treated is:

Number of acres = Total gallons available / Application rate per acre.

By substituting the given values into the formula, you have:

Number of acres = 147 gallons / 11.3 gallons per acre.

When you carry out this division, you find that:

147 / 11.3 ≈ 13.

This indicates that with 147 gallons, approximately 13 acres can be treated. This calculation shows the direct relationship between the total amount of liquid available and the rate at which it is applied per acre. Hence, the correct answer reflects an appropriate understanding of how application rates work in aerial application practices.
