7 lb will cover an area of 1 square foot, while 315 lb will cover an area of 45 square feet.
From given question,
252 lb = 36 ft² ..........(1)
The number of pound for an area of 1 square foot is calculated as follows:
x = 1 ft² .......(2)
The area and the amount of gravel are illustrations of proportions.
From (1) and (2) we get an equation,
⇒ x × 36 = 252 × 1
⇒ x = 252/36
⇒ x = 7 lb
We need to find the area that could be covered with 315 lb of gravel
The area to be covered with 315 lb gravel is calculated as follows:
315 lb = y ............(3)
From (1) and (3) we get an equation,
⇒ y × 252 = 36 × 315
⇒ y = 45 ft²
Therefore, 7 lb will cover an area of 1 square foot, while 315 lb will cover an area of 45 square feet.

Answer:
Incomplete problem - reword
Step-by-step explanation:
This is the best I got Require to make 2 equations with the same repeating part and subtract them to eliminate the repeating part.
begin by letting x = 0.5555555................. (1)
To obtain the same repeating part after the decimal point need to multiply by 10
hence 10x = 5.555555........................(2)
It is important to obtain 2 equations in x, where the recurring part after the decimal points are exactly the same.
now subtract (1) from (2) to obtain fraction
(2) - (1) : <span>9x=5⇒x=<span><span>59</span></span></span>
Answer:
1. 392
2. 75
3. 
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 7×8 + 3×8×14 = 56 + 336 = 392
2. 675 ÷ (6 + 3) = 675 ÷ 9 = 75
