Question 949155
 A farmer has 3/5 of his land under cultivation.
 He grows soybeans on 3/4 of that land. If he has 270 acres of soybeans
 how much land does he have under cultivation?
:
Find what fraction of the land is in soybeans
{{{3/4}}} * {{{3/5}}} = {{{9/20}}}
let t = total amt of land he has
{{{9/20}}}t = 270
t = 270 * {{{20/9}}}
t = 600 total acres
"How much land does he have under cultivation?"
{{{3/5}}} * 600 = 360 acres

;
Check this " He grows soybeans on 3/4 of that land."
{{{3/4}}} * 360 = 270
