Amanda wants wall-to-wall carpeting in her living room, which measures 12’ x 15’. carpeting is on sale for $38.00 per sq. yd. estimate the cost

$760

Step-by-step explanation:

First off we need to define the amount of feet per square yard.

(3feet= 1yard)

(9 squarefeet = 1 square yard)

Now we find the total area of Amanda's living room.

12 x 15 = 180 sq feet

Now that we have the total area of Amanda's living room, we then divide the total to the number of square feet in a square yard.

180 / 9 = 20 square yards.

Amanda will need a total of 20 square yards to carpet her living room. Now we simply multiply the amount of each square yard to the total amount of square yards that Amanda needs.

38 x 20 = $760
