Question

A rectangular room has a width of 5 yards and length of 6 yards. How many square-feet carpet will be required for carpeting the room?
A) 250
B) 270
C) 300
D) 330

Answer 1

Answer:

Option B $270\ ft^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of the rectangle room, is equal to

$A=LW$

where

L is the length

W is the width

we have

$L=6\ yd$

$W=5\ yd$

Remember that

1 yard= 3 feet

Convert yards to feet

$L=6*3=18\ ft$

$W=5*3=15\ ft$

The area is equal to

$A=(18)(15)=270\ ft^{2}$
