Terra wants wall-to-wall carpeting in her bedroom, which measures 10’ x 12’6”. Carpeting is on sale for $24.99 per sq. yd. What is the cost? (Remember to round your dimensions before calculating the area)

Answer:

$347.08

Explanation:

10' x 12'6" = 125 ft^2

one yd^2 = 9 ft^2

125/9 = 13.89 yd^2

13.89 x $24.99 = $347.08
