What is the area of the parcel described as follows: NW¼ of the SE¼ and the W½ of the NE¼ and the NE¼ of the NW¼ of Section 13; plus the SE¼ of the SW¼ and the SW¼ of the SE¼ of Section 14?

120 acres

To determine the total area of the described parcel, it’s important to understand how sections and their subdivisions are structured in the Public Land Survey System.

Each section comprises 640 acres. The description breaks down into specific parts of sections 13 and 14. In the question, we have:

1. **NW¼ of the SE¼ of Section 13**:

- The SE¼ consists of 160 acres (since 640 acres / 4 = 160 acres).

- The NW¼ of that 160 acres equals 40 acres (160 acres / 4 = 40 acres).

2. **W½ of the NE¼ of Section 13**:

- The NE¼ is also 160 acres.

- The W½ of that is 80 acres (160 acres / 2 = 80 acres).

3. **NE¼ of the NW¼ of Section 13**:

- The NW¼ is 160 acres.

- The NE¼ of that is 40 acres (160 acres / 4 = 40 acres).

Adding these three parts together gives:

- 40 acres (NW¼ of SE¼) + 80 acres (W½ of NE¼) +
