To determine the number of bags of soil Melody needs, you need to know the volume of the raised bed.
Assuming the raised bed is rectangular, you can calculate the volume by multiplying the length, width, and height of the bed.
For example, if the raised bed is 4 feet long, 3 feet wide, and 1.5 feet high, the volume would be:
4 feet x 3 feet x 1.5 feet = 18 cubic feet
To fill the raised bed with soil, Melody would need:
18 cubic feet รท 1.5 cubic feet per bag = 12 bags of soil
Therefore, Melody would need 12 bags of soil to fill her vegetable garden.
Melody is planning a raised bed for her vegetable garden.
She needs to add soil. Each bag contains 1.5 cubic feet. How many bags will she need to fill the vegetable garden?
