the floor of this rectangular room? (**numbers and decimal only in answer
** NO $$ NO comma**) *

Step-by-step explanation:

Width

1/2 cm = 5 feet

2cm = x                    Cross Multiply

1/2 x = 2 * 5              Combine

1/2 x = 10                  Multiply both sides by 2

x = 20

Length

1/2 cm = 5 feet

4 1/4 cm = x              Cross Multiply

1/2 x = 4 1/4 * 5         Combine the right

1/2 x = 21.25              Multiply both sides by 2

x = 42.5                    

Room Area

Area = 20 * 42.5

Area = 850 square feet

Cost

1 square foot costs 8.5 dollars.

850 square feet costs 8.5 * 850

850 square feet costs 7225  dollars.
