Convert yards to feet to make it easier to solve.

anonymous · Answer

Right, but what would be the formula?

confluxepic · Answer

# Yards x 3 = # Feet

anonymous · Answer

So 9yards x 3 = 27ft 
What next?

anonymous · Answer

Thanks @confluxepic but I figured it out.

4(3) = 12
5(3) = 15

12(15) = 180sq ft
$2.89(180) = $520.20
