Sebastian has a tent that is 5 feet wide by 12 feet long. Sebastian wants to buy a plastic tarp to go under the tent. The tarps are sold for $2.00 per square foot. How much would it cost to buy a tarp that is the same size as Sebastian's tent?
Who makes up these silly unrealistic questions?
Anyway.....
area to be covered = 5(12) or 60 square ft
at $2 per square foot, the cost would be $120
(gee, I did all that in my head)
