The bells are adding a new room to their house. The room will be a cube with a volume of 5832 ft^3. They are going to put in hardwood floors, and the contractor charges $5 per square foot. How much will the hardwood floors cost?

Answer :

Answer:

The hardwood will cost $1620

Explanation:

The room is a cube with volume of 5832 ft^3

This means we have for a cube foot:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 18\text{ft }\times\text{ 18ft }\times\text{ 18ft} \\ =5832ft^3 \end{gathered}[/tex]

So, for a square foot, we have:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 18\text{ft }\times\text{ 18ft} \\ =324ft^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]

The hardwood will then cost:

324 * $5 = $1620
