Question

What will it cost to carpet a room with indoor/outdoor carpet if the room is 10 feet wide and 12 feet long? The carpet costs 12.51 per square yard.

A. $166.80
B. $175.90
C. $184.30
D. $189.90
E. $192.20

Answer 1

I assume the room being carpeted is rectangular shaped. The "catch" here is that the carpet dimensions are in feet (area in square feet) and the cost in square yards.

Answer 2

easiest to convert feet to yard, find the area and multiply by cost/yard^2

Answer 3

Ten feet is 10/3 yards and twelve feet is 12/3 yards.

The area of the carpet is the area of a rectangle.

Area = (10/3) * (12/3) = 120/9 square yards which simplifies to 40/3 square yards.

The carpet costs 12.51 per square yard.

$12.51 * ( 40/3) = $166.80
