1250/80 = 4000/x   solve for x

number of bags = x / 32

cost = 1.19 times number of bags

Okay, this is for a.
You can find how much it would require by figuring out how many times 1,250 goes into 4,000.  Multiply the number you get by 80 (the amount of fertilizer to cover 1,250) to find out how much fertilizer you need to cover 4,000 square feet.
