a store advertises carpet that costs $ 18.95 per square yard. how much does that carpet cost per square meter?

Answer 1

one inch equals 2.54 cm

a square yard is 36^2 square inches

a square meter is 100^2 square cm

$18.95 * 100^2 / (36 * 2.54)^2

Answer 2

1m = 1.0936 yd
1m^2 = 1.196 yd^2

so, the cost is

$18.95/yd^2 * 1.196yd^2/m^2 = $22.66/m^2
