Given the statement:

A realtor listed a house that was 45 yards by 10 yards.

Determine the square footage of the house. 

Solution:

In order to determine the square footage of the house, we simply need to multiply first the value of yards by 3 to change to feet.

1 yard = 3 feet

45 yards (3) = 135 feet

10 yards (3) = 30 feet

Multiply the measurements to find the square footage. 

= (135 feet)(30 feet)

= 4,050 ft^2

Final answer:

= 4,050 ft^2
