Answer 2

Answer: 45.6 quarts

Explanation:

Given: Alan is putting weed killer on a field to get it ready for planting.

Total land of two fields=
`22.5\ acres+38.25\ acres=60.75\ acres`

Amount of weed killer used for each acre of land = 0.75 quarts

Now, amount of weed killer used for 60.75 acres =
`60.75*0.75=45.5625\approx45.6\ quarts`

Hence, Alan needs 45.6 quarts of weed killer for his two fields.
