Jayden wants to lay sod on his front yard and on half of his back yard. His front yard has a length of 60 feet and a width of 80 feet. His back yard has a length of 10 feet and a width of 40 feet. How many square feet of sod does Jayden need to purchase?
A.
2,800 square feet
B.
4,900 square feet
C.
5,200 square feet
D.
5,000 square feet
The front yard area is 60 feet * 80 feet = 4800 square feet
The back yard area is half of 10 feet * 40 feet = 200 square feet
Therefore, Jayden needs to purchase 4800 square feet + 200 square feet = 5000 square feet of sod
So the answer is D. 5000 square feet.
