STEP 1
find cubic feet; multiply the three dimensions together; be sure to use the same unit of measure for all three dimensions: 6 inches is equal to 1/2'.

= 38' * 37' * 1/2'
multiply

= 703 cubic feet


STEP 2
divide cubic feet in step 1 by number of cubic feet in a cubic yard

27 cubic feet= 1 cubic yard

= 703 ÷ 27
= 26.037 cubic yards


STEP 3
multiply cubic yards in step 2 by cost per cubic yard

= 26.037 * $150
= $3,905.555
= $3,906 rounded to nearest dollar


ANSWER: It will cost $3,906 (rounded to nearest dollar).

Hope this helps! :)

We need to find the volume first.
In order to multiply the volume, we need to convert everything.
We could either convert it to feet or inches. We can do feet.
38 feet by 37 feet by 0.5 feet.
We need to then multiply.
38×37=1,406×0.5=703
So the volume of the slab is 703 ft³.
The concrete is $150 per cubic yard.
cubic yard= 27 cubic feet
We can make it $150 per 27 cubic feet.
We need to divide the volume of the slab by 27.
703÷27= 26
Now multiply it by 150.
The cost is $3,906(3,905.56)

In bulk, jelly beans cost 18 cents per ounce. What is the cost of the jelly beans in dollars per pound?
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

So we know that there are 16 ounces in one pound, so let's multiply to find how many cents one pound of jelly beans cost:

16*8=128cents

And we know that there are 100 cents in one dollar, so let's divide this by 100:

\frac{128}{100}=1.28

So the jelly beans cost $1.28 per pound.

dolphi86 [110]
15% off means 85% on so I would use .85x · 6 = total monthly cost  to represent this problem.  The dot represents times (I did not want to confuse things by using x)

Other ways to express this:

6 x .85x
6(.85x)
.85x (6)
