If it takes 1/3 of an acre for each cow then you'd get 108 and divide it by 3 so it would take 36 acres to feed all the cows.

Answer: There are 36 acres to provide grass for their dairy cattle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of cows in the herd = 108

Number of acre of pastureland to provide grass for each cow = \(\dfrac{1}{3}\)

We need to find the number of acres of pastureland that are needed to provide grass for their dairy cattle.

So, Number of acres in all is given by

\(108\times \dfrac{1}{3}\\\\=36\ acres\)

Hence, there are 36 acres to provide grass for their dairy cattle.
