To find the total square footage of both rooms, multiply the length and width of each room separately.
For Room 1:
12 ft * 15 ft = 180 square ft
For Room 2:
12 ft * 15 ft = 180 square ft
To find the total square footage of both rooms, add the square footage of each room together:
180 square ft + 180 square ft = 360 square ft
Since there are 9 square feet in 1 square yard, divide the total square footage by 9 to find the total square yards needed:
360 square ft ÷ 9 = 40 square yards
Therefore, the homeowner should order 40 square yards of carpet.
