Green poster  

area of rectangle = Lb

area of rectangle = 36 × 24

area of rectangle = 864 square inch

since 1 square inch = $0.05

864 square inch = ?

cross multiply

864 × 0.05 = $43.2

Red posters

area of rectangle = Lb

area of rectangle = 12 × 18

area of rectangle = 216  square inches

216 × 0.05 = $10.8

Total amount she spent on the posters = $43.2  +  $10.8  = $54
