$15 million or 3,750,00 francs was the price for the Louisiana Territory. The 1803 agreement was known as the Louisiana Purchase, whereby the French gave up their claims to the western Mississippi valley.
At the beginning of the 19th century, France had owned the territory now know as the Louisiana Territory. Napoleon was the emperor of France and was planning his campaigns to conquer all of Europe. His army was strong, but his navy could not compete with the British navy. Since France owned New Orleans and a vast territory that was the same size of the existing USA, he did not believe he could defend it against the British. The USA, however, would be staunch defenders of New Orleans and its vast Louisiana Territory. Napoleon did not want his rivals, the British, to control the city and its vast territory.Over the objections of his brothers, Napoleon believed his ministers could make a deal with US President Jefferson and his representatives in Paris.The real estate deal known as the Louisiana Purchase was arranged in 1803. At only 3 cents per acre, the US doubled its size and now stretched from New Orleans all the way to the vast western frontiers. U.S. bought Louisiana purchase for 3 cents per acre. It doubled the size of the U.S. and Jefferson sent Louis and Clark to survey what the U.S. had bought. This was a new frontier and people wanted to get a new start and they had a lot of territory to choose from. The territory led clear to the Pacific coast.
The Mississippi River was an important boundary in the Louisiana Purchase. The United States paid about $15 million for the Louisiana territory, which only worked out to about 4 cents per acre.
No , Napoleon Bonaparte gave the United States the Louisiana Territory for 3 cents an acre for various reasons
The United States bought it from France for 15 million dollars. That is about three cents an acre.
This would obviously depend on where in Louisiana you are buying this acre of land. An acre in New Orleans' Garden District is worth more than an acre at the Arkansas border for example.
Actually, it was even less. The US bought the territory from the French for a total of $15 million which would result in a little more than 3 cents per acre.

The Louisiana Purchase nearly doubled the size of the United States when Thomas Jefferson bought the territory from France in 1803. All or part of 15 states are included in the territory and it allowed for Americans to discover new space and resources in the west. It was also purchased for only 3 cents an acre, incredibly cheap considering all that it provided to American society

Thomas Jefferson. He paid 15 million and thought that the price was too high. ha where can you get land for 3 cents an acre today?
The cheapest land will probably be from $800-$1200 an acre. This is usually land with no timber, or structures. Land with timber is closer to $1500 -$2500 an acre, depending on age of timber and location of the plot.
