Question

Tom wants to buy a pool table thatmeasures 3 foot by 7 foot. The cost of the table is $14.50 per square foot. How much will it cost Tom to buy the pool table he wants?

Answer 1

ANSWER :

$304.50

EXPLANATION :

From the problem, we have a pool table with dimensions of 3 foot by 7 foot.

The area of the table is :

$3ft\times7ft=21ft^2$

The cost of the table is $14.50 per square foot.

So the cost of the table will be :

$21\cancel{ft^2}\times\frac{\ 14.50}{1\cancel{ft^2}}=\ 304.50$
