One box off grass seed covers 15m of the garden.
Work out the mumber of boxes off grass seed Kaydla meeds to cover the garden.

Answer 1

Dimensions of a rectangular place :

Length (L) = 14 m,

Breadth(B) = 9 m,

Dimensions of the pond:

Length (l) = 3.8 m,

Breadth (b) = 2.4 m

Area of the garden

= Area of the place - Area of the pond

= 14 × 9 - 3.8 × 2.4

= 126 m² - 9.12 m²

= 116.88 m²

It is given that,

15m² garden covered by 1 box of seeds

116.88 m² garden needs = ?

$Number \:of \: seed \: boxes \: required$

$=\frac{116.88}{15}$

$= 7.792$

$\approx 8$

Therefore.,

$Number \:of \: seed \: boxes \: required$

$= 8$
