Question

Mr. Williams is building a sandbox for his children. It costs $228 for the sand if you build a rectangular sandbox with dimensions 9ft x 6ft . How much will the sand cost if he decides to increase the size to 13 1/2ft x 9ft

Answer 1

$513

Do $228 ÷ 54, which is equal to 4.2 repeated

Multiply 4.2 repeated by (13.5 × 9), = 513
