Question

A 15-pound bag of wildflower seed covers 40 square feet .How many pounds of seed does it take to cover 1 square foot

Answer 1

So basically we want to find how much sets of 40s there are in 15.

So, just 15/40.

15/40 = 0.375 = 3/8

So if you want it in fraction form, 3/8 of a pound, and if you want it in decimal form, 0.375 of a pound.
