Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that  Jeanette uses 18 square inches of paper for each card, for us to get the number of square inches she will need to make 150 cards, we will use the equality operation;

18 in² = 1 card

x in² = 150 cards

cross multiply

x * 1 = 18*150

x = 2700 in²

Convert 2700 in² to feet²

Since 1in² = 0.00694444ft²

2700in² = x

cross multiply

x = 2700 * 0.00694444

x = 18.749988ft²

Hence she will] need 18.749988ft²  to make 150 cards
