Pemdas, so exponent before multiply
so do a^-1/2 then multiply it by 2
remember that
![x^ \frac{m}{n}= \sqrt[n]{x^m}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%5E%20%5Cfrac%7Bm%7D%7Bn%7D%3D%20%5Csqrt%5Bn%5D%7Bx%5Em%7D%20%20)
and

therefor,

the we multiply by 2
We are given
Jim's backyard:
Length is

width is

Since, this is rectangle
so, we can find area of rectangle



Area of one sod:
length is

width is

Since, it is rectangle in shape
so,



Number of pieces of sod:
we can use formula
Number of pieces of sod = (area of Jim's backyard)/(area of one sod)

now, we can simplify it
pieces need ..............Answer
