Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
[tex]1\ ft=12\ in[/tex]
step 1
Convert the dimensions of the painting to inches
[tex]2ft\ 3in=2*12+3=27\ in[/tex]
[tex]3ft\ 5in=3*12+5=41\ in[/tex]
step 2
Find the area of the painting
[tex]A=27*41=1,107\ in^{2}[/tex]
step 3
Find the cost
[tex]1,107\ in^{2}*0.35(\$/in^{2})=\$387.45[/tex]
