Just take the square footage and divide it by nine(9). For example; if your living room is 12x12 and your den is 15x21 then you would multiply 12x12=144, then multiply 15x21=315, add the two 144+315=459, then divide by 9, 459/9=51 total sq yrds. In order to get the square yardage for a role of carpet(12ft WIDE) all you have to do is take the length and multiply it by 1.33 and you will get the sq yrds. For ex. if you have a role 12x 223ft you just multiply 223x1.33=296.59yrds.

If the perimeter of a room is 32 ft how much sq ft of carpet do i need to cover the floor?

what are the dimensions of the room? Is it square? Assuming it's square, 32ft perimeter means 8 foot walls. 8 foot walls means 64 square feet of flooring. Assuming it's a rectangle with the long wall of 10 feet and the short wall of 6 feet, then it's 60 square feet of flooring.

When finding the square footage of a room Is it true that all you have to do is length X width?

When you say "square footage", that usually means the area of the floor, and yes, you get that by multiplying (length of the room) x (width of the room). That tells you how much carpet you need for the floor. The walls and the ceiling also have their own "square footage". You have to know that to do things like paint and wallpaper. The ceiling has the same area as the floor. But for the walls, you have to do another whole different calculation. The easy formula for square footage of the walls is circumference (the distance around the room at the floor level) X the height of the wall (at the tallest point if the walls are uneven or have a peak). If the walls have a large number of windows, doors or other areas not to be painted, you may want to figure the rough square footage of these (estimate low, better to have a bit too much paint than a bit too little) and subtract that from your total. If you are estimating square footage for paint remember you may want to do two coats. If you are estimating for wallpaper, be sure to allow for the "pattern repeat".
