Question

Kevin wants to plant a garden in his back yard. He’d like to plant tomatoes. He read that he should plant one tomato plant for every square foot in the garden. If the garden 10 feet long and 6 feet wide, he can plant ____ tomato plants. (Enter the number only.)

Answer 1

For this question, you will need to find the area of the garden. To do this, you will multiply the length of one side of the garden by the length of the other side of the garden, which should give you 60 square feet. Since only 1 plant can be planted per suqare foot, 60 is therefore your answer to this question.
