HELP PLSS I NEED TO TURN IN RIGHT NOW!!!!

Mr. Foster wants to put a new carpet on the floor of his rectangular playroom. The playroom is 27 ft long and 18 ft wide. He has found an inexpensive carpet that is priced $14 per sq yd. What would be a reasonable price for enough carpet to cover the floor of his playroom?

Answer 1

Answer: $756

Explanation:

convert feet to yards

1 yard = 3 feet

27 ft = 9 yards

18 ft = 6 yards

carpet represents area

area = length x width

area = 9 x 6

area = 54 yards^2

$14 for 54 yards^2 = 14 x 54

14 x 54 = 756

$756
