Question

Samuel has 3/4 ton of mulch to spread equally in 8 square yards. How many tons of mulch will be spread in each square yard

Answer 1

Answer:

0.09375 tons

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, it is given that Samuel has 3/4 tons of mulch i.e. 0.75 tons of mulch.

Again it is given that Samuel has to spread equally this amount of mulch in 8 square yards of the plot.

Since the mulch is spread uniformly, then we can say that in each square yard of the plot (0.75/8) = 0.09375 tons of mulch is been spread.

Therefore, 0.09375 tons of mulch will be spread in each square yard. (Answer)
