Enter the total amount of gallons used and the total acres covered into the Application Rate Calculator. The calculator will evaluate the Application Rate.

## Application Rate Formula

The following two example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate the Application Rate.

APP = G / A
• Where APP is the Application Rate (gallons/acre)
• G is the total amount of gallons used
• A is the total acres covered

To calculate an application rate, divide the total amount of gallons used by the total acres covered.

## How to Calculate Application Rate?

The following example problems outline how to calculate Application Rate.

Example Problem #1:

1. First, determine the total amount of gallons used.
• The total amount of gallons used is given as: 30.
2. Next, determine the total acres covered.
• The total acres covered is provided as: 10.
3. Finally, calculate the Application Rate using the equation above:

APP = G / A

The values provided above are inserted into the equation below and computed.

APP = 30 / 10 = 3.00 (gallons/acre)

Example Problem #2:

For this problem, the variables required are provided below:

total amount of gallons used = 40

total acres covered = 20
