Solution
The correct option is B 64
Total area of the land = 215 square miles = (23)5 square miles = 85 square miles
and area of the pieces being sold = 83 square miles
Hence, the number of actual pieces that can be sold = 85/ 83= 82= 64
Total area of the land = 215 square miles = (23)5 square miles = 85 square miles
and area of the pieces being sold = 83 square miles
Hence, the number of actual pieces that can be sold = 85/ 83= 82= 64
