Respuesta :

Answer:

a) 13.33 acres

b) 27.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Out of the 30 acres of land shared by Awo,

5 acres of land was given to the first child.

The remaining acres of land = 30 - 5 = 25 was shared equally among the 3 children, means that each children has 25/ 3 = 8.33 acres of land.

Therefore,

a) The first child got 5 + 8.33 = 13.3 acres of land

b) Percentage of land other children have = 8.33/30 × 100 = 27.7%
