A 40 kilogram bag of seeds are spread out throughout the entire yard, how much in kilograms of seeds will not be watered? Percentage of my previous question is 96.1%In the last question 96.1% of grass was covered in water Their were 123 squares that got water except 5 of them so I divided 123 by 128 to find the percentage of grass covered by waterIf their were 5 squares that didn’t get water out of 128 then can’t we work from that? To find the 40 kilograms that wouldn’t get water from those 5 squares

5 squares of 128 didn't get water.

If 40kg are spread out throughout the entire yard, how much in kilograms of seeds will not be watered?

Use a rule of three to solve the question:


\begin{gathered} x=(40\cdot5)/(128) \\ \\ x=(200)/(128) \\ \\ x=1.56 \end{gathered}

Then, 1.56 kilograms of seeds will not be watered
