<PRE><B>Question 124467</B>
Sam wishes to fertilize his lawn that is 75 feet by 207 feet. The fertilizer is on sale for $5.25 per bag. Each bag covers 575 square yards. What is the cost to fertilize his yard?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

First, you have to find the area. You do this by multiplying the dimensions.&lt;BR&gt;&lt;br&gt;

{{{75*207}}}&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

This comes out to be 15,525.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Now, you divide that number by 3 to convert it to yards.
That comes out to be 5,175.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Next, you divide that number by 575 to determine how many bags you will need.
That comes out to be 9.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

Lastly, multiply that number by 5.25 to determine the cost.&lt;br&gt;
Which brings you to your answer, that it would cost $47.25 to fertilize the yard.</PRE>
