Question

A rectangular room is 5 yards by 7 yards. The owner of the hotel wants to re carpet the room that costs $54.00 per square yard How much will it cost to re carpet the room?

Answer 1

Since each yard is worth $54.00, then you first need to find the area of the carpet.

To do this, you can just multiply the length times width.

5 * 7 = 35

The carpet has an area of 35 yards in total.

Now you just need to find how much money 35 yards of carpet is worth.

To do this, you just multiply:

$54 * 35 = $1,890

It would cost $1,890 for the carpet.
