I believe the answer is -3
We can divide that up into two rectangles, say the bottom one 8 feet wide and 2 feet high. That leaves 5.5 by 6-2=4 feet for the other.
Cost = price × area = 2.25(8×2 + 5.5×4) = $85.50
Answer: $85.50
To convert a percentage to decimal form, you need to divide the number in the percent by 100. In reality, that just looks like moving the decimal point to the left two places.
83% / 100 = 0.83
83% in decimal form is 0.83.
Hope that helped! =)
