Question 149670: If edging cost $2.32 per 12-inch stone, and you want a double layer of edging around your flower bed that is 6 yards by 1 yard. How much will edging you flower bed cost?
A. $32.48
B. $64.96
C. $97.44
D. $129.92
E. $194.88 correct answer
If the yard dimensions in feet are 3' x 18', then with the double hedging, I tried 5' x 20' x $2.32, and that's not the right logic.
Please help!

You can put this solution on YOUR website! it seems like you may be forgetting the corners
the bed has two 18' sides and two 3' sides, plus a stone at each corner __ 46 stones
similarly with the second layer; 2*5+2*20+4 __ 54 stones
should be 100 stones total...
don't see a good answer...looks like everyone forgot the corners
