10m
12m

Answer 1

To determine if there is enough money in the budget to cover the cost of the linoleum, including underlay and installation, we need to calculate the total cost and compare it to the budget.

First, we calculate the area of the factory floor that needs to be covered:

Area = length × width
Area = 10 meters × 12 meters
Area = 120 square meters

Next, we calculate the total cost of the linoleum, underlay, and installation:

Total cost = cost per square meter × area
Total cost = $25 per square meter × 120 square meters
Total cost = $3000

Unfortunately, you have not provided the actual budget amount, so I cannot determine if there is enough money in the budget. To complete this task, compare the total cost of $3000 to the available budget:

If the budget is equal to or greater than $3000, there is enough money to cover the cost. If the budget is less than $3000, there is not enough money in the budget.
