Question

Arthur is putting a tile floor in this room. The tiles are 1 foot on each side. Half of the tiles will be dark brown tiles that cost 58 cents each. The other half will be light brown tiles that are on sale for 49 cents each. How much will the tiles for this floor cost?

Answer 1

What are the dimensions of the room? Can you take a screenshot?

In any case, calculate the total area of the room in square feet. Divide that amount by 2 to get the number of dark brown tiles. Multiply by the cost of 1 dark brown tile.

Repeat the process with the light brown tiles.

Add the two total costs.
