Padma is a contractor who builds houses for her clients. She buys her flooring from a supplier who has the best prices in town. Recently, she ordered 455 square feet of wood laminate and it cost $1,501.50.

Question

What was the cost of each square foot, in dollars?

Answer 1

To find the cost of each square foot, you can divide the total cost by the number of square feet.

$1,501.50 / 455 square feet = $3.30 per square foot

So, each square foot of wood laminate cost $3.30.
