Answer

$$C = 205 \text{ dollars per square foot}$$

Work Step by Step

Using the areas for the first and second floors calculated in problems 37 and 38, we find that the total area is: $$A=7587\ ft^2 + 10,413 \ ft^2 \\ A = 18000 \ ft^2 $$ Thus, the cost per square foot is: $$ C= \frac{\$3,698,700}{18000} \\ C = 205 \text{ dollars per square foot}$$
