Question

Laurel has an area in her yard that is in the shape of a parallelogram. It has a base of 30 feet and a height of 22 feet. She wants to cover this area with wildflower seeds. She finds out that 1 ounce of seeds covers 125 square feet of ground. How many ounces of seeds does she need to cover this area?

Answer 1

Answer:

Laurel has to cover this area with 2.64 ounces of seeds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Base of Parallelogram = 30ft

Height of Parallelogram = 22ft

Area of Parallelogram = 1/2*base*height

Therefore, Area of Parallelogram =  1/2*30*22

                                                        = 330sq. ft

Given

One ounce of seed covers 125 sq. ft

Hence, No. of ounces needed to cover 330 sq. ft= 330/125

                                                                                  = 2.64
