At a cost of $2.50 per square yard, what would be the price of carpeting a rectangular floor measuring 18 feet by 24 feet?

Answer is: $120
(18ft x 24ft) = 432 square feet
1 yard = 3 feet 1 square yard = (1yd * 1yd) = (3ft * 3ft) = 9 square feet
(432 ft^2)/(9 ft^2 per yard) = 48 square yards
(48 square yards) ($2.50 per yard) = ** $120 *
