1.33 dandelions per square meters

Explanation:

The correct answer would be 1.33 dandelions per square meter of land.

Size of quadrat = 1.5 square meters

Average number of dandelions per quadrat = 2

Total study area = 4500 square meter

Population density = number of organisms per unit area

There were 2 dandelions per 1.5 square meters

How many would be per square meter?

= 2 x 1/1.5 = 1.3333 dandelion per square meters

To 2 decimal places = 1.33 per square meters
