Problema Solution
Total cost of 1.2 cubic yds of soil if it sells for $24 per cubic yd?
Answer provided by our tutors
we write "dollars per cubic yard" as "dollars/yd^3" so that the units "yd^3" will cancel when multiplying by "1.2 yd^3", leaving an answer in units of dollars
24 dollars / yd^3 * 1.2 yd^3 = 28.80
the cost would be $28.80
