OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

If you go to a carpet store and ask for the price of carpet, they will tell you the price per square foot. For example, a certain type of carpet may cost $10 per square foot. Another type of carpet may cost $20 per square foot. If you know how many square feet of carpet, then you can order the amount you need, and you will be told the correct price.

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

The question asks what Mrs. Lozano must know to know how much carpet she needs. She needs to know how much area she needs to cover with carpet. Choices A, B, and D don;'t tell you the area of carpet she needs. Only choice C tells you how much area of carpet she needs.
