Question

If a soil area is 90 feet long and 60 feet wide is trated with a power sprayer using a dosage of one gallon per square yard of surface, the total amoun of solution would be:

A. 450 gallons
B. 600 gallons
C. 900 gallons
D. 1500 gallons

Answer 1

To find the total amount of solution needed, multiply the area of the soil by the dosage of one gallon per square yard. In this case, the total amount of solution would be 600 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total amount of solution needed, we first need to find the area of the soil. The area of a rectangle is found by multiplying its length and width. In this case, the length is 90 feet and the width is 60 feet, so the area is 90 * 60 = 5400 square feet.

Next, we need to convert this area from square feet to square yards. There are 9 square feet in 1 square yard, so the area in square yards is 5400 / 9 = 600 square yards.

Finally, we multiply the area in square yards by the dosage of one gallon per square yard to find the total amount of solution needed. In this case, it would be 600 * 1 = 600 gallons. Therefore, the correct answer is option B. 600 gallons.
