7.7 pallets of sod.

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallelogram-shaped field in a park needs sod. The parallelogram has a base of 27.5 meters and a height of 14 meters. The sod is sold in pallets of 50 square meters. How many pallets of sod are needed to fill the field?

Step 1

We find the area of a parallelogram

The formula is given as:

Base × Height

Hence:

The area is calculated as:

27.5 meters × 14 meters

= 385 square meters

Step 2

The sod is sold in pallets of 50 square meters. How many pallets of sod are needed to fill the field?

This is calculated as:

50 square meters = 1 pallet of sod

385 square meters = x

Cross Multiply

50 square meters × x = 385 square meters × 1 pallet

x = 385 square meters × 1 pallet/50 square meters

x = 7.7 pallets of sod.

Therefore, 7.7 pallets of sod are needed to fill the field.
