When one side of a quadrilateral is not to be fenced (ex. a river, as in this case), the optimal fencing to maximize the area is always to use half the fencing for the length, and one-fourth for each of the two widths
A) For 1000 ft of fencing which is to be used to cover 1 length and 2 widths:
L = 1000/2 = 500, and W = 1000/4 = 250. The optimal dimensions will be 250 x 500 ft.
B) This will result in an area of 250*500 = 125,000 sq. ft.

One cubic foot of sand should be $11.25. You can find this answer by dividing the first price by 3, because there are 3 feet in a yard.
Answer:
Jim only found 15 of the containers.
Step-by-step explanation:
If his mom hid 875 jelly beans evenly into 25 containers we can easily multiply 25 x 35 = 875, which means there were 35 jelly beans in each container.
Jim only found an amount of 385 jelly beans. To find out how many containers he found, all you have to do is divide 385 by 25 which gives us 15.4.
15.4 rounded to the nearest whole number is 15. So your answer would be that Jim found only 15 out of 25 containers.
