A farmer needs to build a goat pen. The pen will be 7 meters wide and 10 meters long. The fencing material costs $1.00 per meter. How much will it cost to buy enough fencing material to build the goat pen?

Simple, $70.00!

Just multiply the amount of meters wide by long (7 x 10) and slap a dollar sign on that thing!
