Answers:

atomixandie:  ((9*12+3)*(6*12+9)) * (1.25/12) =
work out each side in inches, work out the total area then work out how much one square inch would cost seeing you are now working in inches

lion23:  1 square foot = Cost $ 1.25
or
12 X 12= 144 square inches = Cost $ 1.25

1 square inch cost = 1.25/144 = $ 0.00868

Rug 9 feet 3 inches X 6 feet 9 inches= (9X12+3) (6X12+9)
111 inches X 81 inches = 8991 square inches

Total cost of cleaning the rug = 8991 X 0.00868
= $ 78.04

It'll cost you $ 78.04 to clean the rug


Is that right???
Thanks
