Austin is fertilizing his garden. The garden is in the shape of a rectangle. Its length is 14 feet and its width is 11 feet. Suppose each bag of fertilizer covers 22 square feet. How many bags will he need to cover the garden?
First you need to find the area, the formula is A=LxW, multiply 14 by 11, that’s the area. If one back covers 22 ft we need to find how many 22s are in 154, to do that you divide. Make sense?
