To find out how much Melissa's family paid for the house, you can multiply the total square footage by the price per square foot.
Given:
- Square footage = 1,400 square feet
- Price per square foot = $58.00
The calculation is:
\[ 1,400 , \text{sq ft} \times 58.00 , \text{$ per sq ft} = 81,200 , $ \]
Therefore, Melissa's family paid $81,200 for the house.
