If you know the rugs sell for 8$ per square foot and the total spend was $432. You divide 432 by 8 to find the total number of square foot of the rug. Which is 54. To find total square foot you find the area. So the area of a rectangle is L*W. So 54 = 9*width. So just divide 54 by 9 and you get the width of the rug. The width is 6 foot. Now you check. A nine by 6 rugs square foot is 54. and then times by 8 and you get 432 total. So you know the rug is 6 foot wide. :)
