Answer: 7lb
Explanation:
The amount of gravel required cover each square feet of the garden obtained by dividing the total amount of gravel used and the total area of the garden is 7 lb
Total area of garden = 36 ft²
Total amount of gravel used = 252 lb
The amount of gravel used to cover each ft² of the garden can be calculated thus :
(Total amount of gravel used) ÷ (Total area of garden)
252 ÷ 36 = 7 lb
Therefore, the amount of gravel required to cover each square feet of the garden is 7 lb
