Answer 1

The amount of the area of the home used and the total area of the second property are 26.25 acres and 20.625 acres respectively.

• Total land area = 27.5 acres
• Amount of land used for park = 0.75 acres

The amount of land to be used for a home is the difference between the total land area and the area to be used for land :

• 27.5 acres - 0.75 acres = 26.25 acres

Land Area of second property = 0.78 times the land ares

• Second property = 27.5 × 0.78 = 20.625 acres

Therefore, the total area of the second property is 20.625 acres.
