Given that a bag of fertilizer covers an area of 2000 ft^2, the number of bags required to cover a lawn whose dimensions is 360 ft by 120 ft will be given by:
Number of bags=(area of lawn)/(area covered by 1 bag)×(number of bags)
thus
area of lawn:
A=length*width
A=360×120=43,200 ft²
Area covered by 1 bag=2000 ft²
Number of bags required for the lawn:
43200/2000
=21.6 bags
~22 bags

The total number of bags of fertilizer that should be purchased to cover a rectangular lawn is 35 bags.

What is the total number of fertilizers needed?

The first step is to determine the area of the rectangular lawn:

Area = length x width

360 x 190 = 68,400 square feet

Now, divide  68,400 square feet by 2000

68,400 / 2000 =35 bags
