Not usually, but quotes may be requested by the consumer or installer in any measurements they wish. Since carpets are seldom installed in simple rectangular areas, an estimate must take all variations and area shapes into account and determine the amount of carpet required including cutting waste. The various carpet widths available also enter into the equation and the most economical width should be used to minimize seams and scraps of waste. The final quote will be in square yards - or square meters - and will include the waste. Then, the carpet is ordered by specifying width and length of carpet required for the final installation.

Carpet area in square units of measurments = length *width
A linear metre off a crapet is the LENGTH of the carpet. Its width depends on the carpet manufacturer.
Yes
To find the square feet of carpet for a room, measure the length and width of the room in feet. Then, multiply the length by the width to get the square footage. For example, a room that is 10 feet by 12 feet would require 120 square feet of carpet.
-- Measure the length and width of the room, in feet.-- Multiply the (length of the room) times (the width of the room), in feet.-- The answer is the number of square feet of carpet required to cover the floor of the room.
Multiply the length of the room times the width.
Length x width gives you the area of something. A room for instance. You might have to do this if you were buying a carpet for that room and needed to know what size carpet.
That's going to depend on a number of parameters, none of which has been specified in the question, such as: -- length of the carpet -- width of the carpet -- thickness of the carpet -- style/knap of the carpet -- backing of the carpet
By the yard or metre. A roll of carpet is a certain width, maybe 3metres and you buy it by the metre length or yard length. So if you buy 12 metres of carpet you get a piece 3m X 12m.
There are 0.273 lineal metres is a carpet with a standard width of 3.66 metres (from the only imperical measure of 12 feet). The calulation is 0.273 (length) x 3.66 (standard width) = 0.99918 square metres. If you purchased 1 lineal metre of standard carpet you would have 3.66 square metres of carpet. Lineal refers to the length of any item irrespective of it's width and is normally used when the item is produced in standard width's.
