Question

It is recommended that there be at least 15.9 square feet of ground space in a garden for every newly planted shrub. A garden is 37.1 feet by 15 feet. Find the maximum number of shrubs the garden can accommodate.

Answer 1

The total area of the garden is 37.1 ft x 15 ft = 556.5 sq. ft. It is safe to assume that the area of each shrub is 15.9 sq. ft. The number of shrubs can be calculated by dividing the total area of the garden by the area of each shrub: 556.5 sq. ft. / 15.9 sq. ft. = 35 shrubs.
