Question

The daily supply of oxygen for a particular multicellular organism is provided by 625 square feet of lawn. A total of 11,875 square feet of lawn would provide the daily supplies of oxygen for how many organisms? The lawn would supply the daily supply of oxygen for organisms.

Answer 1

From The question,

The daily supply of oxygen is provided by 625square feet lawn.

The total square feet of lawn supply daily = 11,875.

using comparison

625 sq ft provide oxygen for one organism

11875square ft will provide oxygen for Y-organism

`\begin{gathered} 625\text{ = 1} \\ 11875\text{ =Y} \\ \text{then Y = }(11875)/(625) \\ Y\text{ = 19} \end{gathered}`

11,875 square feet will supply oxygen for 19 organisms
