Greg is fertilizing his garden. The garden is in the shape of a rectangle. Its length is 15 feet and its width is 13 feet. Suppose each bag of fertilizer covers 39 square feet. How many bags will he need to cover the garden?



Answer :

Answer:

5 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of bags required to cover a garden

= Area of garden ÷ Area that each bag of fertilizer covers

The garden is rectangular with length = 15 feet and width = 13 feet
Area of a rectangle = length x width
Area of the garden = 15 x 13 = 195 square feet

Each bag of fertilizer can cover 39 square feet

Number of bags required = 195 square feet ÷ 39 square feet
= 195/39

= 5 bags
