Mr. Falk is going to replace the carpet in his basement. The basement is
rectangular with a length of 27 feet and a width of 18 feet. If the cost of the
carpet is $32 per square yard, what will be the total cost?*

Respuesta :

Answer:  1728 dollars

==========================================================

Explanation:

1 yard = 3 feet

We'll divide by 3 to convert from feet to yards

  • 27 feet = 27/3 = 9 yards
  • 18 feet = 18/3 = 6 yards

The basement is 9*6 = 54 square yards in floor area.

At $32 per square yard, the total cost to carpet the floor is 32*54 = 1728 dollars.
