A rectangular plot of land is to be seeded with grass if the plot is 22m X 28m and a 1kg bag of seed is needed for 85m^ of land how many bags of seeds are needed?
A = 22 * 28
A = 616 sq. m
616 / 85 = ?
Remember to round up.
Well, well, well. Look at you, all excited about planting grass! Let's do some math and figure out how many bags of seeds you'll need, shall we?
First, we need to calculate the total area of your rectangular plot. To do that, we multiply its length and width. So, 22m multiplied by 28m equals 616m². Pretty spacious, huh?
Now, we're told that one bag of seeds can cover 85m² of land. So, to find out how many bags you'll need, we divide the total area of the plot by the area covered by one bag of seeds: 616m² divided by 85m².
Doing the division, I get approximately 7.25. Okay, so we can't have a quarter of a bag of seeds, right? So, we'll need to round it up to the nearest whole number. That means you'll need about 8 bags of seeds.
But remember, you might want to buy an extra bag, just in case some pesky critters decide to have a little snack before your grass grows. Can't let all your hard work go to waste, can we?
To find the number of bags of seed needed, we can follow these steps:
Step 1: Calculate the area of the rectangular plot.
The area of a rectangle is found by multiplying its length by its width.
Area = Length x Width
Area = 22m x 28m
Area = 616m^2
Step 2: Determine the number of bags required per unit area.
We are given that 1kg bag of seed is needed for 85m^2 of land.
Step 3: Calculate the number of bags needed for the entire plot.
Number of bags = Total area / Area per bag
Number of bags = 616m^2 / 85m^2
Number of bags ≈ 7.247 bags
Since we cannot have a fraction of a bag, we round up to the nearest whole number.
Therefore, the number of bags needed to seed the rectangular plot is 8 bags.
To find the number of bags of seeds needed, we need to determine the total area of the rectangular plot of land and then divide it by the amount of land covered by one bag of seeds.
First, we calculate the area of the rectangular plot of land by multiplying its length by its width:
Area of rectangular plot = Length × Width
Given that the length is 22m and the width is 28m:
Area of rectangular plot = 22m × 28m
Now, we determine the total area of the land covered by one bag of seeds, which is given as 85m^2.
Finally, we divide the area of the rectangular plot of land by the area covered by one bag of seeds to find the number of bags needed:
Number of bags needed = Area of rectangular plot / Area covered by one bag of seeds
Let's calculate the number of bags needed:
Area of rectangular plot = 22m × 28m = 616m^2
Number of bags needed = 616m^2 / 85m^2
Using a calculator or long division, we find:
Number of bags needed ≈ 7.25
Since we cannot have a fraction of a bag, we round up to the nearest whole number.
Therefore, approximately 8 bags of seeds are needed to cover the rectangular plot of land.
