Carpet costs $3 per square yard. the room that will be carpeted is 12 feet x 18 feet. how much will the carpet cost?

The carpet will cost $72

Step-by-step explanation: Area of the carpet that will cover the room is calculated by: A = length x width.

A = 12*18 = 216 square feet

The price is given per square yard. So to transform square feet in square yard:

1 square ft = 0.111 square yard

216 = 216 / 9 = 24 square yard

To carpet the room, it will be needed 24 square yard of a carpet.

Since 1 square yard costs $3:

24*3 = 72

The cost to carpet a 12x18ft room is $72.

i pretty sure it is
