To cover the strawberry plot: - Calculate the number of compost bags needed by dividing the plot area by 3.5 m². - Multiply the number of bags by R60.50 to find the total cost. For feeding with potatoes: - Divide the total potato production (50 kg) by the amount needed per family (10 kg) to find the number of families that can be fed. - Multiply the number of families by 10 to get the total number of persons fed. **Summary:** - Total cost: \( \frac{\text{Plot Area} \times 60.50}{3.5} \) Rands - Total persons fed: 50

The Deep Dive

To cover the strawberry plot, first determine the total area that needs composting. If one bag covers \(3.5 \, \mathrm{m}^2\), divide the total area of the plot by that figure to find out how many bags are needed. Then, multiply the number of bags by R60.50 to find the total cost. For example, if the plot is \(21 \, \mathrm{m}^2\), it would take \(21 \div 3.5 = 6\) bags, resulting in R363.00 for composting. Regarding potato consumption, if 50 kg of potatoes can feed 10 persons per 10 kg, start by calculating how many 10 kg servings you have in 50 kg. You have \(50 \div 10 = 5\) servings. Since each serving can feed 10 people, you multiply \(5 \times 10 = 50\). Thus, 50 kg of potatoes can feed a total of 50 people! Yum, that’s a whole feast!
