Explanation / Answer

Given

1 Acre = 43,560 sq feet

One and a half acres :
43,560 * 1.5 = 65,340 sq ft

So, depth of lot :

Area of Rectangle = Frontage * Depth

Depth = 65,340 / 160 = 408.375 ft = 408.4 ft

b) Fencing: It is done on the sides of the lot

160 + 160 + 408.4 + 408.4 = 1136.8 ft.

We know that

1 yard = 3 feet

So, 1136.8 ft when converted to yards give = 1136.8/3 = 378.9 yards
