Q. Each side of a square office is 7 yards long. It will cost $27.00 per square yard to replace the carpet in the office. What would be the total cost to replace the carpet?$_____
Calculate Area of Square: Calculate the area of the square office.Since the office is a square, the area is found by squaring the length of one side.Area = side length × side lengthArea = 7 yards ×7 yardsArea = 49 square yards
Calculate Total Cost: Calculate the total cost to replace the carpet.The cost to replace the carpet is the area of the office multiplied by the cost per square yard.Total cost =Area×Cost per square yardTotal cost =49 square yards×$(27.00) per square yardTotal cost $= \$(\(1\),\(323\).\(00\))
