Problem 84
Problem: Complete the "Understand the problem," "Make a plan," and "Complete the plan" steps. A 20 -acre field is going to be divided into building lots. The area of each lot is \(\frac{2}{5}\) acre. Find the number of lots in the development. Incorrect Answer: The unknown is the number of lots: \(L\) = number of lots. To find the number of lots, multiply the area by the number of lots. $$ \begin{aligned} &L=\left(\frac{2}{5}\right)(20) \\ &L=8 \text { lots } \end{aligned} $$
