If a tank can cover 14 acres at a volume of 1.5 pints per acre, how many pints are needed for the full tank?

To determine how many pints are needed for the full tank, you need to multiply the area that the tank can cover (14 acres) by the volume of pesticide required per acre (1.5 pints per acre).

The calculation is as follows:

14 acres × 1.5 pints per acre = 21 pints.

This means that for a tank covering 14 acres at a rate of 1.5 pints per acre, you will need a total of 21 pints. Understanding this calculation is critical in aerial application, as accurate measurements ensure effective pest control while minimizing waste and environmental impact.
