Imagine a square 1 ft on each side and 3.8 grubs inside that square.
\n" ); document.write( "Then find the area of her lawn.
\n" ); document.write( "\"60.4%2A80.2+=+4844.1\" ft2
\n" ); document.write( "Each of the 1 ft x 1 ft squares in her lawn has 3.8 grubs, so
\n" ); document.write( "\"3.8%2A4844.1+=+18407.5\" grubs in her lawn
\n" ); document.write( "In terms of dimensions, it's
\n" ); document.write( "(grubs/ft2)(ft2/lawn) = grubs/lawn
