A packet of grass seed can be
used to cover 50m² of lawn.
A circular lawn has a diameter of 20 metres
How many packets of grass
seed must be bought so that the entire lawn can be covered?

Respuesta :

Answer:

7 packets of grass seed

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the area of the circular lawn using the formula, A = [tex]\pi[/tex]

If the diameter is 20 meters, the radius is 10 meters.

Plug in 10 as the radius and solve for the area:

A = [tex]\pi[/tex]r²

A = [tex]\pi[/tex](10²)

A = 100[tex]\pi[/tex]

So, the area of the lawn is 100[tex]\pi[/tex] m² or approximately 314.16 m²

Divide this by 50 to find how many packets of grass seed are needed:

314.16/50

= 6.28

Round this up to 7, since we need to have a whole number answer.

So, 7 packets of grass seed have to be bought.

7 packets
Ea y square m = 1/50 = 0.02 packets per square meter

Radius = 10
Area : 10 square x pi = 100 x pi. = 314.16.....

314.16....x 0.02 = 6.283....
More than 6 packets are needed
So 7 packets must be bought
