Wren's bedroom is 12 feet long x 10 feet wide. She plans to purchase carpet for the entire room. The carpet costs $25 per square meter. What are...

The conversion of feet to meter is 1 foot=0.3048 meter


Length of bedroom= 12 feet


Length of bedroom = `12*0.3048` meters


Length of bedroom=3.6576 meters


Length of bedroom (rounded off to nearest tenths) (l) = 3.7 meters


Width of room =10 feet


Width of room in meters = `10*0.3048` meters


Width of room=3.048 meters


Width of room (rounded off to nearest tenths) (b) = 3.0 meters


Since the room is rectangular , so area of the room = Length(l) x Breadth(b)


Area of the room = 3.7*3.0


Area of the room =11.1 `m^2`


Cost of the carpet=$25 per square meter


Cost of the carpet to cover the entire area of the room =25*11.1


                                                                              =$277.5
