Question 642075: the hardwood floors we ordered cost 60$ per square yard. if it cost 1200$ to completely hardwood the floor of the room with a width of 12 feet , how long is the room? Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
Divide the total cost by the cost per square yard to get the number of square yards. Divide the width in feet by 3 to get the width in yards. Divide the area in square yards by the width in yards to get the length in yards. Convert the length in yards to whatever units you like.
