A kitchen measures 5 yd by 6 yd. How much would it cost to install new linoleum in the kitchen if the linoleum costs $2 per square foot?
1 yard = 3 feet
15 * 18 * 2 = $________
To find out how much it would cost to install new linoleum in the kitchen, we need to calculate the total area of the kitchen in square feet and then multiply it by the cost of linoleum per square foot.
First, let's convert the dimensions of the kitchen from yards to feet. There are 3 feet in a yard, so the kitchen measures 5 yards x 3 feet = 15 feet in width, and 6 yards x 3 feet = 18 feet in length.
To find the area of the kitchen, multiply the width by the length: 15 feet x 18 feet = 270 square feet.
Now that we know the kitchen's area is 270 square feet, we can calculate the total cost of the linoleum by multiplying the area by the cost per square foot: 270 square feet x $2 per square foot = $<<270*2=540>>540.
Therefore, it would cost $540 to install new linoleum in the kitchen.
