Question:  1linear Yard by 5 ft wide. cost $4.55. what is the cost per Sq Ft?

The $4.55 is the cost per linear yard of the fabric.

1 yard of fabric is 5 ft wide.

Therefore 1 yd of fabric has an area of 3*5 = 15 sq ft.

Therefore 15 sq ft of fabric costs $4.55

I.e. cost of fabric is $4.55/15 = 30.33 c per sq ft.
