Answer:

No

Explanation:

The area of Leonardo's bedroom is 110 square feet. If the remnant has an area of 105 square feet, then that equates to 105 < 110 meaning that it has a smaller area than the actual bedroom floor, which makes it not possible to cover the bedroom floor.

Answer:

Yes, it can be used to cover his bedroom

Explanation:

You would do 10 times 11, which is 110. So the area of his bedroom is 110 ft. So then you would do 110-105=5,so you would have 5ft left of space, so yes th carpet would fit.
