Information given

For tis problem we know that a garden falt has 100 ft^2.

We also know that he needs 2/3 ft^2 for each plant. And we want to estimate the number of plants that Aaron are able to get in his gard.

Solution to the problem

So we can use the following operation using proportionality rules:


(1plant)/(2/3ft^2)=(x)/(100ft^2)

With x representing the desired value. If we solve for x we got:


x=100ft^2\cdot(1plant)/(2/3ft^2)=150plants

So then we can conclude that in the garden can exists 150 plants
