We think there are 108, 900 butterflies in the 40 acre alfalfa field.
We figured there were 4 butterflies every 64 sq. feet. An acre is 43,
560 sq ft. (we got that from Ask Jeeves). Then we multiplied that by
the 40 acres and got 1, 742, 400 sq ft in the field. Next we divided by
64 to get the "butterfly units" and got 27, 225 butterfly units. We
took that times the 4 butterflies every 64 sq. ft (the butterfly unit)
and got 108, 900 butterflies. How did we do?
