Question

A new lawn has a perimeter of 300 ft. and a width of 60 ft. A bag of grass seed will cover 270 ft2 of ground. How many bags of grass seed are needed to seed the new lawn?

Answer 1

Answer:

20 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

Find length

2L = 300 - 2*60

2L = 180

L = 90 ft

Find area

a = 90 * 60

a = 5400 ft^2

Bags needed

b = 5400/270

b = 20 bags
