How many square feet are in the SE 1/4 of SW 1/4 of Sec 22 T11N, R2W?

  1. 1,320,000

  2. 1,000,800

  3. 1,742,400

  4. 2,000,000

The correct answer is: 1,742,400

To solve this problem, we first need to understand the land division in question. The question is asking for the area of the Southeast Quarter (SE 1/4) of the Southwest Quarter (SW 1/4) of Section 22 in Township 11 North, Range 2 West. In the Public Land Survey System (PLSS), a section is typically 1 square mile, which is equivalent to 640 acres. Each quarter section, therefore, is one-fourth of that area. 1. First, calculate the area of the SW 1/4 of Section 22: - The area of the entire section is 640 acres. - Therefore, the area of the SW 1/4 is: 640 acres ÷ 4 = 160 acres. 2. Next, we calculate the area of the SE 1/4 of that SW 1/4: - The SE 1/4 of the 160 acres is: 160 acres ÷ 4 = 40 acres. 3. Finally, to convert acres to square feet, we use the conversion factor where 1 acre equals 43,560 square feet: - The area in square feet is
