A rectangular lawn is 20 yards by 28 yards. It would cost $4.80 per yard to install a fence around the lawn. How much would it cost to put a fence around the lawn?

The answer would be 2,688.
first thing you need to get is the area of the lawn so you multiply 20 by 28 then you get 560 and then you multiply the 560 by 4.8 which would give you the total amount of money it would cost to put a fence around the lawn

$460.80
20 + 20 + 28 + 28 = 96
96(4.80) = 460.8
