Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

the number on the bottom of the fraction (denominator) is equal to the total number of possibilities (in this case there are 6 possibilities). for the number on top (the numerator) we are trying to work out the probability of rolling a 3. a 3 is only 1 of the 6 options (1, 2, <u>3</u>, 4, 5, 6) so the number on top is 1.

I hope this was helpful :-)

Answer:

B. 18 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to determine the area of the vegetable garden. The vegetable garden is a rectangle with the following dimensions:

L = 24 ft

W = 9 ft

The Formula for the area of a rectangle is:

$A = L\times W$

So let's solve it:

$A = L\timesW\\A = 24 ft\times9ft\\A= 216ft^{2}$

With that, we can figure out how many bags of fertilizer would be needed by dividing the area of the vegetable garden by how much one bag of fertilizer covers:

$\dfrac{214ft^2}{12ft^2/bag}=18\;bags$
