To find out how much sand is needed for 370 sq yd of surface, you can set up a proportion based on the given information. Since 1.9 cu yd of sand is required for every 100 sq yd, you can use the formula: \[ \text{Sand needed} = \left(\frac{1.9 \, \text{cu yd}}{100 \, \text{sq yd}}\right) \times 370 \, \text{sq yd} \] Calculating this gives: \[ \text{Sand needed} = \frac{1.9 \times 370}{100} = 7.03 \, \text{cu yd} \] So, 7.03 cu yd of sand will be needed for 370 sq yd of surface.
