    The answer to your question is: letter B. 16 days

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Materials = $3.89 square foot

    Day of labor = $121.26

    Total $2982.68

    Square feet = 252 more than the number of days

    Process

    materials = days of labor + 252

    materials = m

    days of labor = d

    m = d + 252 (I)

    Total Equation

    3.89m + 121.26d = 2982.68

    3.89 (d + 252) + 121.26d = 2982.68

    3.89d + 980.28 + 121.26d = 2982.68

    3.89d + 121.26d = 2982.68 - 980.28

    125.15d = 2002.4

    d = 16

    Number of days 16.
