Question

Phil is buying bags of grass seed.

● One brand, Quickgrow, says it covers 120 of an acre with 12 of a cup of seeds.
● The second brand, Greengrass, says that it covers 115 of an acre with 15 of a cup of seeds.
Which brand of seeds would cover the greatest area per cup?


A.Greengrass


B.Neither


C.Both


D.Quickgrow

Answer 1

The answer is quick grow you will have to find the unit first

Answer 2

D. Quickgrow

Explanation:

You have to find the unit rate first. 120 acres divided by 12 cup of seeds, you get 10 acres for 1 cup of seeds. For green grass you get 7.6 acers for 1 cup of seed. Since your trying to figure out which brand of seeds can cover up more acers, 10 is greater than 7.6. Therefore Quickgrow would cover up more land.

Sorry is my explanation is confusing.
