Asked by Island Grandma
This math is killing me! How do I find the area of a flower bed in square feet if it is triangular in shape and the base is 3 yards and the height is 2 yards? Please help, I am feeling overwhelmed.

Ms Sue The answer I got is 3 yards.

1 yard = 3 feet
A = bh/2
A = (9 * 6)/2
A = 26 square feet
A = bh/2
A = (9 * 6)/2
A = 26 square feet

And if one bag of topsoil covers 10 square feet, how many bags are needed to cover this flower bed? Would that be 1 bag?
