Question

Concrete can be purchased by the cubic yard. How much will it cost to pour a slab 11 feet by 11 feet by 2 inches for a patio if the concrete costs $46.00 per cubic yard?

Answer 1

$34.04

Explanation:

The dimensions of a slab is 11 feet by 11 feet by 2 inches or 3.67 yards, 3.67 yards and 0.055 yards

We need to find the cost to pour a slab.

We know that the volume of a cuboid shape is given by :

V = lbh

Put all the values,

V = 3.67 × 3.67 × 0.055

V = 0.74 yards³

Cost,

C = $46 × 0.74

C = $34.04

Hence, the required cost is equal to $34.04.
