Answer :
6 ft = 2 yds
12 ft = 4 yds
10inches = 10/12 = 5/6 of a foot = 5/6 divided by 3 = 5/18
of a yd
Total volume in yards = 2 x 4 x 5/18 = 2.22 cubic yards
Total cost = $5.00 x 2.22 = $11.10
Answer:
- [tex]2.24\ yard^3[/tex]
- [tex]\$11.2[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that
[tex]1\text{ Feet}=0.33\text{ Yard}[/tex]
[tex]1\text{ Inch}=0.028\text{ Yard}[/tex]
You built one raised garden box that is 12 feet by 6 feet and 10 inches tall.
or you built one raised garden box that is 4 yards by 2 yards and 0.28 yard tall.
Then the volume of the box is,
[tex]=4\times 2\times 0.28=2.24\ yard^3[/tex]
Soil is priced at $5 per cubic yard, so the total cost will be,
[tex]=2.24\times 5=\$11.2[/tex]
