Respuesta :

Answer:

Option B [tex]270\ ft^{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of the rectangle room, is equal to

[tex]A=LW[/tex]

where

L is the length

W is the width

we have

[tex]L=6\ yd[/tex]

[tex]W=5\ yd[/tex]

Remember that

1 yard= 3 feet

Convert yards to feet

[tex]L=6*3=18\ ft[/tex]

[tex]W=5*3=15\ ft[/tex]

The area is equal to

[tex]A=(18)(15)=270\ ft^{2}[/tex]
