Question

I need two 12x23 feet of carpet for my basement at $6.00 per square foot. How much will this cost?

Answer 1

The first step is to determine how much square footage you need. You can do this by riding the total area of the two rugs.

12 x 23=276 sq. feet

But since you need two:

276 x 2=552 sq. feet

Now, you can calculate the cost.

552 sq. feet x $6=$3,312
