Answer:
46.818 kg
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find the surface area of your yard. This is found by multiplying the length and width.
The equation for this is (l*w)=sa
So,
l=20ft
w=17ft
(20*17)= 340 square feet.
So, if each square foot gets 1350 new flakes per minute, you are going to find how much the entire yard gets in a minute by multiplying the surface area by 1350.
So,
(340*1350)= 459000 flakes for the entire yard in one minute.
Since there is 60 minutes in an hour, multiply 459,000 by 60.
459,000*60= 27,540,000 new flakes in the yard per hour.
Now, to find the weight in milligrams:
27,540,000*1.7= 46,818,000 mgs
Finally, because a kilogram is equal to one million milligrams (mg),
46,818,000/1,000,000= 46.818 kg
