Crop yield is the ratio of the number of bushels harvested to the number of acres used for the harvest. this year, the harvest at a farm was 94,010 bushels of grain, resulting in a crop yield of 170 bushels per acre. to the nearest whole acre, how many acres were harvested?

Given;
94,010 bushels of grain
crop yiel of 170 bushels per acre

Crop yield = number of bushels harvested / number of acres used for harvest

170 bushels per acre = 94,010 bushels / number of acres used for harvest

number of acres used for harvest = 94,010 bushels / 170 bushels per acre
number of acres used for harvest = 94,010 bushels * 1 acre/170 bushels
number of acres used for harvest = 94,010 acre / 170
number of acres used for harvest = 553 acres

There were 553 acres harvested.
