Asuka is planting grass seeds on her new lawn. The dimensions of her lawn are 4 ft by 3 ft. The instructions to plant the grass seeds suggest planting 16 seeds for every squarefoot How many seeds should Asuka use to plant her entire lawn? foot

Respuesta :

Since she can plant 16 seeds per square foot, then

We must find the area of the lawn

Since the lawn is shaped a rectangle of dimensions 4 ft and 3 ft, then

[tex]\begin{gathered} A=L\times W \\ A=4\times3 \\ A=12ft^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Since 1 square foot = 16 seed, then

12 square feet = 12 x 16 = 192 seeds

She will need 192 seeds to plant the entire lawn
