Question

a rectangular floor is 12 feet wide and 18 feet long. How much will it cost to carpet the floor if the carpet cost $1.39 per square foot?

Answer 1

We have to find the area first
12 x 18=216 square feet
we do 216* $ 1.39= $ 300.24

Answer 2

You just first do 12×18 and you will get 216. Then you will multiply 216 ×1.39 and you will get the answer 300.24.
