What will it cost to carpet a room with indoor carpet if the room is 2 m wide and 0,03m long? The carpet costs R12,51 per cm2.

Answer 1

To find the cost of carpeting the room, we need to calculate the total area of the room and multiply it by the cost per square centimeter.

The area of the room is given by:
Area = Width x Length
Area = 2m x 0.03m
Area = 0.06m²

To convert the area to square centimeters, we multiply by 10,000 (since there are 10,000 cm² in 1 m²):
Area = 0.06m² x 10,000 cm²/m²
Area = 600 cm²

Now we can calculate the cost of carpeting the room by multiplying the area by the cost per square centimeter:
Cost = Area x Cost per cm²
Cost = 600 cm² x R12,51/cm²
Cost = R7,506

Therefore, it will cost R7,506 to carpet the room with indoor carpet.
