Answer:

39 pounds is needed

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Lawn Dimension: 78' by 93'

4 pounds fertilizer for 750ft² area

Required

Determine the amount needed for the given dimension

First, we need to calculate the area of the lawn

Area = 78' * 93'

' means feet

So:

Area = 78ft * 93ft

Area = 7254 ft^2

Let the amount of fertilizer need be x

So, we have:

4 pounds = 750ft²

and

x = 7254ft²

Cross Multiply:

x * 750 = 4 * 7254

x * 750 = 29016

Solve for x

x = 29016/750

x = 38.688

<em></em>x = 39<em> (approximated)</em>
