Question

Raghu's room measures 8m×3m . His carpet covers 16m^2. What percent of the floor is covered by carpet?
Step wise

Answer 1

step1. find the area of the room

dimensions of the room = 8m × 3m

area of the room = 24m^2

step 2. the area of the carpet = 16m^2

now find the percentage of the area of carpet to that of the room

=(16m^2)/(24m^2) × 100%

=2/3 × 100%

=200/3%

=66.666%

=66.67%
