the answer to this question is 150 i think. U should mulitply 10 and 15 together since their the outside of the yard basically the fence and to find how to cover it all u could just mulitply the two numbers (10 and 15) to get the answer of 150

Answer:

The square feet of grass she needs to plant is:

150 square feet

Explanation:

Mya's rectangular yard is 10 feet wide and 15 feet long.

She wants to plant in such a way that she covers the entire yard.

This means that she needs to find the area of the yard.

We know that the area of rectangle is the product of length and width.

Hence,

Area of yard=10×15

i.e.

Area of yard=150 square feet.

This means that the grass required is: 150 square feet.
