Question

Prior to hosting an international soccer match, the local soccer club needs to replace the artificial turf on their field with grass turf. The grass turf will cost $ 6.75 per square meter. If the field is 0.101 km by 0.065 km, how much will it cost the club to add the grass turf to their field

Answer 1

$44,313.75

Explanation:

First, we need to turn the km into meters. There are 1000 meters in a km meaning we need to multiply each of these values by 1000.

0.101 km * 1000= 101 meters

0.065 km * 1000 = 65 meters

Now we need to multiply these values together to find the area of the field

101m * 65m = 6,565
`m^(2)`

Finally, we need to multiply this area by the cost per square meter

6,565
`m^(2)` / 6.75 = $44,313.75

The total repair will cost $44,313.75
