50x40x14 = 28000

28,000 x 2.50

Answer 2

Answer:

a. $70,000

Step-by-step explanation:

For ABC Book store

length (l) = 50 ft

breadth (b) = 40 ft

height (h) = 14 ft

Then,

Area of rectangle

= l * b * h

= 50 * 40 * 14

= 28000 sq ft

Now,

It is charged $2.50 per square foot.

= $2.50 * 28000

= $70000

Thus, ABC Bookstore will spend $70,000 on storage space
