Answer: 75

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to cover his backyard with sod, he needs to cover the area of the backyard.

His backyard is a rectangle, and area of a rectangle represented by A is given as l*w

Where,

is the length, and

is the width

So, the area of Jim's backyard is square yards.

l*w=12/5/6*10/2/5=2002/15 or 133.466

The area of each sods are solved using the area of the rectangle formula.

l*w=1/1/3*1/1/3=16/9

To find HOW MANY of these sods we would need to cover the whole backyard, we divide the backyard area by each sod area:

=2002/15 divided by 16 /9=3003/40or 75.075

Since, fractional sods can't be bought, Jim has to buy 75 sods approximately .

nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

William has 24 cans of fruit and 60 cans of vegetables that he will be putting into bags for a food drive.

Factor number 24 and 60:

24=2\cdot 12=2\cdot 2\cdot 6=2\cdot 2\cdot 2\cdot 3=2^3\cdot 3\\ \\60=2\cdot 30=2\cdot 2\cdot 15=2\cdot 2\cdot 3\cdot 5=2^2\cdot 3\cdot 5

Find the greatest common factor

GCF(24,60)=2^2\cdot 3=12

Hence, the greatest number of bags William can make is 12.

Each of these bags will have 24\div 12=2 cans of fruit and 60\div 12=5 cans of vegetables.

If he made fewer bags, 6 bags, each of these bags will have 24\div 6=4 cans of fruit and 60\div 6=10 cans of vegetables.

If he made fewer bags, 4 bags, each of these bags will have 24\div 4=6 cans of fruit and 60\div 4=15 cans of vegetables.

If he made fewer bags, 3 bags, each of these bags will have 24\div 3=8 cans of fruit and 60\div 3=20 cans of vegetables.

If he made fewer bags, 2 bags, each of these bags will have 24\div 2=12 cans of fruit and 60\div 2=30 cans of vegetables.
