Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4,752

Answer 2

Answer:

B. Your estimate is wrong, and it should be $4,752

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that:

Size of tile = 1yard by 1yard

Let convert yard to feet, so as to find the covered by the tile in feet.

Since 1yard = 3feet

Size of tile = 3feet by 3feet

Area cover by tile = 3x3 = 9ft²

Size of kitchen floor = 24ft by 33ft

Area covered by floor = 24 x 33 = 792ft²

Total number of tile needed for the kitchen floor = Area of kitchen/Area of tiles

= 792/9

= 88 tiles

Given that each tile cost $54

Total cost of 88 tiles = 54 x 88 = $4752

Therefore the answer is

B. Your estimate is wrong, and it should be $4,752
