Answer:

Mr. Foster sold 5/6 of the farm.

Step-by-step explanation:

He sold 200 acres out of the 240 so we can write the fraction 200/240. And after that we can simplify the fraction. You can divide both numbers by 40. 200 divided by 40 is 5 and 240 divided by 40 is 6. Therefore, you get the fraction 5/6.
