To calculate the cost of carpeting a room, we first need to determine the total area of the carpet in square feet. Since the image is not provided, I will guide you through the steps to find the total cost based on the area.
-
Calculate the area of the room (in square feet): You need to measure the length and width of the room and multiply them together to find the area: \[ \text{Area (ft}^2\text{)} = \text{Length (ft)} \times \text{Width (ft)} \]
-
Multiply the area by the cost per square foot: Once you have the area, multiply it by the cost per square foot of carpet ($20): \[ \text{Total Cost} = \text{Area (ft}^2\text{)} \times \text{Cost per ft}^2 \]
-
Select the closest answer option: Based on the calculated total cost, select from the given responses.
If you can provide the dimensions of the room, I can calculate the area and subsequently the cost for you.
