Question

A driveway must be replaced. it is 32 yards long, 9.5 feet wide, and the concrete will be 4 inches thick. if concrete costs $153 per cubic yard, what is the cost to replace the driveway?

Answer 1

The cost of replacing the drive way will be given by:
total cost=(volume of drive way)*(cost per cubic yard)
volume of the yard will be given by:
Volume=length*width*height
Volume=32×9.5×4=1216 yd³
Thus the total cost of construction will be:
1216×153
=$186, 048
