Question

A new lawn has a perimeter of 278ft. And a width of 64ft. A bag of grass seed will cover 384ft of ground. How many bags of grass seed are needed to seed the new lawn

Answer 1

Answer:

13 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the lawn: A=lw

w= 64 ft

P= 2(l+w)= 278 ft ⇒

• l= 278/2- 64= 75 ft

• A= 64*75= 4800 ft²

bags of seed required:

• 4800/384= 12.5 so 13  full bags needed
