Question

You read online that a 15 ft by 20 ft brick patio would cost about $2,275 to have professionally

installed. Estimate the cost of having a 24 by 27 ft brick patio installed.

Answer 1

Answer: 4914

Explanation:

multiply 15 and 20 to make 300

multiply 24 and 27 to make 648

set up proportion

`(300)/(648)` ×
`(2275)/(x)`

cross multiply

300x = 648(2275)

300x = 1474200

x = 4914
