Answer 2

The cost of carpet would be 3000 Rs. to carpet a room.

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the room = 5 meter

Breadth of the room = 4.8 meter

Area of the room = Length × breadth

                             = 5 × 4.8

                             = 24 meter²

Width of the carpet = 1.2 meter

Length of the carpet = 5 meter   (to cover the entire length of the room)

area of the one carpet = 1.2 × 5 = 6 meter²

To cover the whole room we need the number of carpet of 6 m²

= $\frac{24}{6}$

= 4

4 carpets of 5 meters in length = 5 × 4 = 20 meter

Cost of one meter carpet = 150 meter

Cost of 20 meter carpet = 150 × 20

                                        = 3000 Rs.

The cost of carpet would be 3000 Rs. to carpet a room.
