Question

Tom wants to buy a pool table thatmeasures 3 foot by 7 foot. The cost of the table is $14.50 per square foot. How much will it cost Tom to buy the pool table he wants?

Answer 1

$304.50

EXPLANATION :

From the problem, we have a pool table with dimensions of 3 foot by 7 foot.

The area of the table is :

`3ft*7ft=21ft^2`

The cost of the table is $14.50 per square foot.

So the cost of the table will be :

`21\cancel{ft^2}*\frac{\$14.50}{1\cancel{ft^2}}=\$304.50`
