Mr. Jansen is replacing his kitchen and game room floors with wood flooring. He received an estimate from a contractor of $5400. The total square footage he needs to cover is 360 ft2 . What is the contractor charging per square foot for labor and materials?

We're looking for the unit price/rate

5400 divided by 360 = 15

This means the unit price is $15 per square foot.

I didn't see any labor nor materials given in the question, but per sq feet would cost $15.
