I know this is math but.. ~If a deck is 24.5 ft. and each square foot is 5$, how much would the deck cost?~
Is not the unit of the deck square foot as well?
no the deck is in feet..
I cannot figure it out...
Do you have the dimensions of the deck?
well see... hang on it's complicated..
that's the entire thing.. @ghuczek
What does it mean that the deck is 24.5 ft? It has to have an area. You have only given one dimension.
oh...well then..i don't know how to do that :( @ghuczek
Sorry I couldn't help you with this. Is the deck square?
no :/ it's in the picture^
Can you post the picture?
it's the problem above the picture
OK. Now you have to figure out the area of the entire surface of the deck. The shape is irregular, so break it up into small regular sections - squares, rectangles and triangles, and find the area of each. Add them up to get the total area. Multiply the total area by five to get the price.
Thank you!
