Question:
i have a question concerning math
i have to calculate the square footage of carpet for me room and im not quite sure how to do that. the carpet is $2.08 per sq. ft. and my room is 12x11ft.
thanx!

Hi Amber,

Think of the flooring as one foot square tiles rather than a carpet.


How many one foot square tiles are there?

If each tile cost $2.08, how much would the flooring cost?

Cheers,
Penny
