Problem 2

Emily is planning to paint her square garden fence of length 655 feet. The cost to paint a foot is 1.5 dollars. Then how much will it cost to paint the full fence?

Okay, lets begin

The length of the fence = 655 feet

The cost to paint 1 square foot of the fence = 1.5 dollars.

To find the total cost to paint, we find the area of the fence,

Area of the fence = area of the square = a²

Here a = 655

Therefore, the area of the fence = 655² = 655 × 655 = 429,025.

The cost to paint the fence = 429,025 × 1.5 = 643,537.5.

The total cost = 643,537.5 dollars

Explanation

To find the cost to paint the fence, we multiply the area of the fence by the cost to paint per foot. So, the total cost is 643,537.5 dollars.
