Question

The new patio at Tonya's house is 5 yards long by 10 feet wide. She is going to cover the patio with square bricks that measure 1 foot on each side. If each brick costs $4, how much will Tonya pay for the bricks? A rectangle that is five yards long and ten feet wide A. $600 B. $120 C. $150 D. $200

Answer 1

A

Explanation:

Steps to take to determine the answer

1. Because the length is in yards, it has to be converted to foot
2. Find the area of the patio using the length and width measured in foot
3. Determine the area of the square brick
4. Multiply the cost of the brick by the area

1 yards = 3 foot

5 x 3 = 15 foot

Area of a rectangle = length x breadth

15 x 10 = 150 ft^2

Cost = 150 x 4 = $600
