How do you figure 2.00 per square foot?

Answer 1

Assuming a rectangle 5 feet long by 2 feet wide, and we are working in pounds sterling (£).

5 x 2 = 10 square feet. To find the cost times £2.00 by 10 which is £20.00.

Answer 2

To calculate the cost per square foot, you divide the total cost by the total square footage. For example, if you have a total cost of $2,000 for an area of 1,000 square feet, the cost per square foot would be $2.00 ($2,000 divided by 1,000).
