How much will the counter top cost if the counter is an L shape measuring 6 feet by 9 feet and 4 feet wide if the coneter material costs 150.00 per linear foot?

Answer 1

That is relatively easy, you would take the equation Linear Foot=Length then mutitply the length by the cost per linear foot. Therefore you already have measured 6 foot plus 9 foot that equals 15 feet in length, you then multiply that number 15 x 150 (price per linear foot) which would give you 2250. The depth does not matter just the length when you measure linear feet. Hmmm. If the counter is L-shaped, I would think you have to take into consideration that the width (4 ft) of the counter would come into play. If the 6 ft section is the front of the counter, then it would take an additional 4 ft to meet the back corner of the 9 ft section ( or vice-versa). I thiink you need to add the 4 ft to the 15 ft to get a better estimate. Hence, 19 X 150 = 2850.
