Answer 1

If you are spreading fertilizer on a golf course at the rate of 40 pounds per 10,000 square feet and the course is 320 acres, you can calculate the amount of fertilizer that will be needed by converting acres to square feet. So, 320 acres are 13,939,200 square feet which means you will need 55,756.8 pounds of fertilizer.
