Final answer:
B. 1778 cubic feet.The correct answer was not listed among the options; Garrett would have approximately 298.76 cubic feet of mulch left in the bag after using 89% of the initial 2716 cubic feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct answer is option B. Garrett has a bag that initially contains 2716 cubic feet of mulch. If he uses 89% of the mulch, we need to calculate how much mulch that represents and then subtract it from the initial amount to find out how much is left. To find 89% of 2716, we multiply 2716 by 0.89.
2716 x 0.89 = 2417.24
So, Garrett uses 2417.24 cubic feet of mulch in his garden. To find out how much mulch is left in the bag, we subtract the amount used from the total amount in the bag:
2716 - 2417.24 = 298.76
Therefore, Garrett has approximately 298.76 cubic feet of mulch left in the bag, which means none of the options A, B, C, or D provided in the question are correct. There seems to be a mistake in the calculation or the options given.
