THE PROBLEM
Mrs. Goss needs to replace her kitchen floor.
APM has really nice ceramic tile on sale for
12.99 a square foot. They also have grout on
sale for 5.99 per gallon. She will need 2
gallons. Her kitchen is fifteen feet long and
twelve feet wide. She also has a closet to
cover, in which the dimensions are 1 yard long by
1 yard wide. How much will it cost Mrs. Goss to
replace the floor if she buys the tile and grout
on sale at APM? Be sure to explain how you
solved it.

The explanation for finding the area

• First I multiplied the length times width to find
  the area of the kitchen floor.
• Next I multiplied the length times width of the
  closet to find the area.
• Then I added the areas together to find the total
  area.

The explanation for finding out how much money
will be spent.

• I multiplied the amount for grout by 2 because
  she needs 2 gallons to find out how much she will
  spend on grout.
• Then I multiplied the total area that needed to
  be covered by the cost per square foot to find
  out how much she will spend on tile.
• Finally, I added the two to get the total amount
  she will spend.
