The school want to purchase enough tarp material to cover their field during bad weather. They want to get exactly eleven percent more than is needed to cover the field so some of the sidelines and area beyond each end zone are covered as well. How many square yards of tarp material should they buy?

Respuesta :

Answer:

6660 yards^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Assumption: the field is 120 yards long and 50 yards wide.

First calculate the area of the field: 120*50 = 6000 yards^2

Then, calculate the 11% of that area:  6000 yards^2*11/100 = 660 yards^2

Finally, the area of the tarp material should be 6000 yards^2 + 660 yards^2 = 6660 yards^2
