The sandbox is most likely in the shape of a kite. As it has only two right angles, it cannot be a square or other form of rectangle. It also cannot be a parallelogram, which has no right angles, nor is it a rhombus- all four sides are not of the same length.
A kite, however, has two pairs of equal-length sides that are adjacent to each other. It also has two sets of equal-measure angles, one of which can be 90° if it is a cyclic kite.
Well since you're using 3/8 and you need to make 4 batches, you need to multiply 3/8 with 4 it would equal 12/8 or 1 4/8 (I could be wrong but this is my answer hopefully this helps) :) <span />
