John's living room is 440.25 ft2. He wants to redo the carpet floor, and make it wooden. It cost $0.89 cents per square foot. How much money would he need to redo them?
John also wants to paint his house. He asked his threee friends for help.
Friend #1 can paint 75% of his house in 3.25 hours.
Friend #2 can paint 60% of his house in 2.96 hours.
Friend #3 can paint 56% of his house in 2.89 hours.
Who can paint it the fastest?
(can anyone answer this, please?)
First one
Cost = Sq Ft x Price per Sq Ft =
440.25 * .89 =
$391. 82
Second one
Friend #1 can paint 75% of his house in 3.25 hours.
Friend #2 can paint 60% of his house in 2.96 hours.
Friend #3 can paint 56% of his house in 2.89 hours.
To see which can paint the fastest....take the given time and divide by the percent expressed as a decimal...the "least" answer is the fastest
So...we have
3.25 /.75
2.96 / .60
2.89 / .60
Can you finish it, DP????
