1 pound fertilizer is $5.
1 pound fertilizer serves 300 square feet.
1 yard is 3 feet.

Garden Dimensions: 10 yards and 7 yards

Not "hold";
but "WHOLE".

10%2A7%2Ayard%5E2%2A%283%5E2%29%28%28feet%5E2%29%2F%28yard%5E2%29%29

70%2A9%2Afeet%5E2

630%2Afeet%5E2

How many containers of fertilizer, if each is 1 pound?
630%2Afeet%5E2%2A%281%2F300%29%28pounds%2F%28feet%5E2%29%29
2.1
You want highlight%282%29 pounds from purchase of two containers.

If that extra 30 square feet is important corresponding to the 0.1 pound of fertilizer, then need to buy highlight%28highlight%283%29%29 containers of fertilizer.
