Answer: 15

Explanation:

Length of garden = 45 feet

Width of garden = 15 feet

One truckload covers 45 square feet

How may truck load will cover the entire garden.

Area of rectangle = Length × width

Area of rectangular garden = 45 × 15

Area of rectangular garden = 675 square feet

1 truckload of mulch = 45 square feet

y = 675 square feet

45y = 675

y = 675 ÷ 45

y = 15 truck loads of mulch

15 truckloads of mulch will cover the entire garden
