Answer 1

Answer:here is your answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:first of all we have to convert the 2 hectare land in square meters,

Also we know that

1 hectare = 10000 square meters, thus 2 hectare will be equivalent to

2X10000=20000 square meters

Dividing equally among four sons gives,

20000/4=5000 square meters

Also 1 are=100 square meters

Therefore 5000 square meters will be equivalent to,

5000/100X1 are

=50 ares each

Hence each son got 50 ares of the field.

Answer 2

Answer:

3.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Total area of land=x

Father keeps= 2/5*x=2x/5

Remaining=x-2x/5=5x-2x/5=3x/5

Daughter gets= 1/3(2X/5)=2X/15

Son 1=2.1

Son 2=2.1

Total=2x/5+2x/15+2.1+2.1=x

         8x/15+4.2=x

          4.2=x-8x/15=15x-8x/15=7x/15

           4.2=7x/15

           4.2*15=7x

          63=7x

          x=63/7=9

Father gets=2/5*x=2/5*9=3.6
