\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "First, you have to find the area. You do this by multiplying the dimensions.

\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"75%2A207\"$

\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "This comes out to be 15,525.

\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now, you divide that number by 3 to convert it to yards.
\n" ); document.write( "That comes out to be 5,175.

\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Next, you divide that number by 575 to determine how many bags you will need.
\n" ); document.write( "That comes out to be 9.

\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Lastly, multiply that number by 5.25 to determine the cost.

\n" ); document.write( "Which brings you to your answer, that it would cost $47.25 to fertilize the yard. \n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
