Mr. Hawkins is covering a room in carpet. The room measures 14 feet by 12 feet in a rectangular shape. Each square foot of carpet costs $2.90. What is the cost of carpeting the room?

Answered by maham237 @



First lets find the area of the floor.

A=l*w where l=length and w=width
Plug in the data
A=14*12
A=168ft²

If 1 square foot of carpet is 2.90$, then 168 square feet are...

1 sqft 168sqft
_______ = ________
2.90$ x$

Cross multiply
1x=487.20
divide both sides by 1
x=487.20 dollars

Answer= $487.20
