The peterson's lawn is 5,500 square feet. the lawn has a total of 16,567,902 blades of grass. to the nearest whole number, what is the density, in blades per square foot, of grass on the peterson's lawn? a.3,010 b. 3,011 c. 3,012 d. 3,013

The area density in this case is given by the following mathematical relationship:
 D = (number of leaves) / (Area)
 Substituting the values we have:
 D = (16567902) / (5500)
 D = 3012.345818
 Nearest whole number:
 D = 3012
 
 The density, in blades per square foot, of grass on the Peterson's lawn is:
 C. 3.012
