A farmer plants twice as many acres of wheat as corn on his land. If he plants no more than 36 acres, what is the greatest number of acres that can be used for corn? 12 acres 18 acres 24 acres 3 acres

Answer: 12 acres could be planted (at most)

Step-by-step explanation: Since there will be twice as many acres of wheat in comparison to the corn, out of the total 36 acres at least 24 of those will need to be wheat. That leaves 12 acres left for the corn.
