For this case we propose a rule of three:

[tex]\frac {3} {5}[/tex] acres ------------>[tex]\frac {5} {6}[/tex] days

x -------------------------------------> 1 day

Where the variable "x" represents the number of acres per day.

[tex]x = \frac {1 * \frac {3} {5}} {\frac {5} {6}}\\x = \frac {\frac {3} {5}} {\frac {5} {6}}\\x = \frac {6 * 3} {5 * 5}\\x = \frac{18} {25}\\x = 0.72[/tex]

Thus, workers can plant 0.72 acres per day.

Answer:

Workers can plant 0.72 acres per day.
