Question

Answer please-

A room 8m× 6m is to be carpeted by a carpet 2m wide. Find the length of the carpet required.​

Answer 1

Area of the room to be carpeted=8×6m=48 sq.m

breadth of the carpet=2m

length of the carpet=48÷2

=24 m

Answer 2

Answer:

24 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of room = 8 m

Breadth of room = 6 m

Area of room=$Length \times breadth$

                     =$8 \times 6$

                     =$48m^2$

Let the length of carpet be x

Width of carpet = 2 m

Area of floor = Area of carpet

Area of carpet = $Length \times breadth$

                       = $x \times 2$    

So, ATQ

$2x=48$

$x=24$

Hence the length of carpet is 24 m.
