Xavier wants to buy fertilizer for his yard. the yard measures 35 feet by 55 feet. the directions on the bag of fertilizer say that one bag will cover 1,250 sq feet. how many bags of fertilizer should xavier buy?

Respuesta :

Area = length * width
Area = 35 ft * 55 ft
Area = 1925 sq. ft

1 bag of fertilizer will cover 1250 sq. ft.

1925 sq ft / 1250 sq. ft = 1.54 bags

Xavier needs to buy 1 and a half bags of fertilizer to cover the whole area.
