If a customer wants a 24” • 48” piece of plastic sheeting and the cost is $1.25 per sq ft, what would the customer pay

Question

I need the answer to this

Answer 1

Hello Erick

 

1 ft = 12 in

 

Length = 48 in x (1 ft / 12 in) = 4 ft

 

Width = 24 in x (1 ft / 12 in) = 2 ft

 

Area = L x W

 

        = 4 x 2 = 8 sq. ft

 

cost per sq. ft. = $1.25

 

cost for 8 sq. ft = $1.25 x 8 = $10.00
