Explanation:

Step1: Calcular el tamaño de cada sección

Primero, dividimos las 73 acres en 6 secciones iguales. La fórmula es $73 \div 6$.
$$73 \div 6 = \frac{73}{6} \approx 12.166...$$

Step2: Determinar el rango para cada comprador

Ahora, vemos en qué rango cae este valor. $12.166...$ es más de 12 y menos de 13.

Answer:

D. more than 12 and less than 13
