What is the cost of fertlizing a 20,000 lawn 1lb N/1000 sq feet with 23-3-23. The fertlizer comes in 55lb bags at $32 a bag.
Step 1. Calculate the rate. = 1 / .23 = 4.35lbs of product for 1lb of N Step 2. Determine the quantity of product required for the application. Cross Multiply. 4.35/1000 = x/20,000, 20,000 * 4.35 =87, 000. Then divide the answer by the denominator. 87,00 / 1000 = 87 Step 3. Calculate Cost. 87 / 55lb bag = 1.58 bags. 1.58 * $32/bag = 50.56. Step 4. What is the cost of the Nitrogen for 1 application. 50.56 * .23 = $11.63
