Calculation Intensive Problems

by f2001290 » Fri Jun 15, 2007 4:43 am
A certain farmer pays $30 per acre per month to rent farmland. How much does the farmer pay per month to rent a rectangular plot of farmland that is 360 feet by 605 feet?
(3,560 square feet = 1 acre)
A. $5,330
B. $3,360
C. $1,350
D. $360
E. $150

Here is a "calculation Intensive" problem. Don't do the mistake of calculating till the end. Take advantage of the choices.

I agree w/C too, but I don't get the exact same numbers as in the q.

i guess the option to be correct it should have been 1850 instead of 1350
