In the United States, land is measured in acres and one acre is 43 comma 560 sq ft. A newspaper advertisement states that all lots in a new housing development will be a minimum of one and a half acres. Assuming the lot is rectangular and has 160 ft of frontage, how deep will the minimal-size lot be?

1 acre =43,560 sq.ft.

1.5 x 43,560 =65,340

65,340 / 160 =408.375 ft. the length of the Lot.
