elbert wants to plant grass his yard is rectangle that's 6 meters by 7 he plans to use a cup of seed for every square meter in his yard how many cups of grass seed will he need
Well let's figure out how many square metres the yard is in order to figure out how many cups of grass seed he will need.
A = L x W
A = 6 x 7
A = 42 squares metres
So the question tells us for every 1 square metre, Elbert uses 1 cup of grass seed. If he has 42 squared metres, Elbert will use 42 cups.
whats the answer??
To find out the number of cups of grass seed Elbert will need, we can follow these steps:
1. Calculate the area of Elbert's yard, which is a rectangle with dimensions of 6 meters by 7 meters.
- Area = length x width
- Area = 6 meters x 7 meters
- Area = 42 square meters
2. Since Elbert plans to use one cup of seed for every square meter, the number of cups of grass seed he will need is equal to the area of his yard.
- Number of cups of seed = Area of the yard
- Number of cups of seed = 42 cups
Therefore, Elbert will need 42 cups of grass seed for his yard.
