Answer:

$18.25

Explanation:

Since area is given as A=LW, and we are given the values of the dimensions of the floor, we get:

5.5×4=22

So, the area is 22 yards, and it costs $401.5 to carpet it. Now, We simply need to divide the cost by the area to get the "cost per-square yard" as needed in the question. We get:

401÷22=18.25

So, the cost of the carpet per square yard is $18.25
