Solution:
Given that,
Carl offered to pay Jake $0.25 a square foot to paint his fence
Therefore,
Cost per square foot = $ 0.25
The fence measures 109 feet long and 7 feet wide
The area of the fence is given as:
[tex]Area = length \times width\\\\Area = 109 \times 7\\\\Area = 763[/tex]
Thus the square footage of the fence is 763 square feet
