Question

Jeremy measured the room to be 10 feet long and 4.5 feet wide. He plans to purchase carpet for the entire room. The carpet cost $15 per square meter. What will be the total cost of the new carpet to the nearest cent?

Answer 1

$205.73

Explanation:

First we find the square area,

multiply 10 by 4.5 and we get 45

we convert feet to meters by dividing it by 3.281

45/3.281=13.71533

we the multiply 13.71533 by 15 to get the total price

we get 205.72996 and round it to 205.72
