horsegirl27 · Answer

What is the size of the land; how much soil is in the bags??

I never heard of an area measured in bags.

I have heard of a math problem similar to this. The bags contained x amount of soil and then you find the area and then use the area to find the number of bags. 
Example: a bag will cover 3 yards, the area of the land is 58 yards.

In the problem above the question is to calculate an area. There is no mention of bags in the question. I think the choices belong to another problem.
