Question

You want to buy carpet for two rooms. The first is 3.2m by 2.7m. The second is smaller, 1.16m by 2.5m. How much carpet do you need to buy to be sure of having enough for both rooms?

Answer 1

11 .54 m ^2

Step-by-step explanation:

large carpet area = 3.2×2.7 =8.64m^2

small carpet area = 1.16×2.5= 2.9m^2

total carpet area = 8.64 + 2.9= 11.54 m^2

hence,

we need To by a carpet with area of 11.54 m^2
