Question

A counter in Darren's kitchen is 1 meter wide and 2 meters long. Darren wants to replace the counter with a granite countertop, which would cost $240.00 per square meter. How much would the granite countertop cost?

Answer 1

$480.00

Explanation:

The area of the counter is:

1 meter * 2 meters = 2 square meters

To calculate the cost of the granite countertop, we need to multiply the area of the counter by the cost per square meter:

2 square meters * $240.00/square meter = $480.00

Therefore, the granite countertop would cost $480.00.
