GPT 3.5
To calculate the cost of the mulch for this project, we first need to find the total square footage of the garden bed.
Total square footage = Length x Width
Total square footage = 24 ft x 8 ft
Total square footage = 192 sq ft
Next, we multiply the total square footage by the cost per square foot of the mulch:
Cost of mulch = Total square footage x Cost per sq ft
Cost of mulch = 192 sq ft x $3.64/sq ft
Cost of mulch = $698.88
Therefore, the mulch for this project will cost $698.88.
Total square footage = Length x Width
Total square footage = 24 ft x 8 ft
Total square footage = 192 sq ft
Next, we multiply the total square footage by the cost per square foot of the mulch:
Cost of mulch = Total square footage x Cost per sq ft
Cost of mulch = 192 sq ft x $3.64/sq ft
Cost of mulch = $698.88
Therefore, the mulch for this project will cost $698.88.
