Answer:
14 bags
Step-by-step explanation:
Dimension of lawn : 230 feet by 180 feet
area of rectangle is given by length * width
Since lawn is rectangular area of lawn = 230 feet * 180 feet = 41,400 sq. feet
Given that one bag of fertilizer covers 3000 square feet of lawn.
Thus , to find no. of bags required to cover whole lawn will be
total area of lawn/area which one bag of fertilizer covers
no. of bags required to cover whole lawn = 41,400 sq. feet/3000 sq. feet
= 13.8 bags.
As no. of bags cannot be fractional , hence rounding bag to nearest unit place is 14 bags.
