The answer does depend on the shape of the original land.

28 acres = 1,219,680 square feet. If this was in the shape of a narrow strip - say 100 feet wide and 12,196.8 long, the developer could not get ever one ploy of 125 ft x 160 ft - even without allowing for the loss for roads and streets.

If you assume that the shape works well for the developer, after the 8% loss he is left with 92% of 1,219,680 sq ft = 1,122,106 sq ft.

Now, each plot is 125*160 sq ft = 20,000 sq ft.

Therefore, number of plots = 1,122,106/20,000 = 56.1 ie 56 plots.
