Answer: $2421.90

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a yard is 3 feet, we can say the foyer is 3 yards by 6 yards (9 feet is 3 yards and 18 feet is 6). The area of a square is x*y, so the area of each floor is 3*6 = 18 square yards. Since there are 5 homes, there are 5 * 18 = 90 total square yards to laminate. That means that the total cost is 90 * 26.91 = $2421.90.
