A property contains 10 acres. Which of the following describes that property?

The property described in the correct answer represents a size of 10 acres as required by the question.

To understand this better, it's important to recognize how land is divided in sections and quarters in the Public Land Survey System (PLSS). Each section of land is typically one square mile or 640 acres, and it can be subdivided into quarters. The typical breakdown is as follows:

• Each section is divided into 4 quarters (NW, NE, SW, SE), each containing 160 acres.

• Each quarter can be further divided into halves. For example, a half of a quarter (or 'half of a quarter-section') is 80 acres, and a quarter of a quarter (or a 'quarter of a quarter-section') is 40 acres.

• Continuing this logic, if you divide a quarter-section by half, it gives you 40 acres.

Now, if the description includes more subdivisions, each of those will further reduce the total acreage.

In this scenario, when analyzing the specific description in the correct answer, "B SW 1/4 of the NW 1/4 of the NE 1/4 of Section 7," it becomes clear that this provides a division that leads to 10
