The 12 x 20 foot room has an area of 240 square feet, and the 15 x 15 foot room has an area of 225 square feet. That's 465 square feet of carpet. But hold the phone. Carpet is generally sold by the square yard, and a square yard is 9 square feet (as 3 feet x 3 feet is 9 square feet). The 465 square feet of floor is 51.666... or 52 square yards of carpet. It might be necessary to buy some "extra" area depending on the width of the "stock" roll of carpet from which the desired pattern/color of carpet is going to be cut.
20 square yards
That depends entirely on the cost of the carpet per square yard (or square metre) !
240 square feet. Multiply the length by the width. The result is the area in square feet.
First you need to convert 12 ft to meters... 12 ft is equal to approximately 3.6575 to get the area multiply 3.6575 by itself the answer will be 13.37730625 sq meters there.. I'm not so sure with this answer though why not check with a calculator ff08 :)
If the room is 4 yards by 5 yards you will need 20 square yards. 20 square yards of carpet at $19.95 is $399.00. Remember you may still have to pay for padding and labor if that is not included in the $19.95 per yard. That may be $3.50 per yard of padding and $7.00 per yard labor approximately. If the room is wider than 12 feet you will use a lot more carpet because of the fill piece required to finish the room must run in the same direction. Total costs summary: * Cost for the carpet ($390) * Installation costs (Labour, underpad) ($210) * Old carpet disposal ($50 est.) * Sales Taxes (@ 10% = $50) * Impact of clergy discounts (@ 10% discount on materials = -$50)

29.45 sq.m of carpet is needed
Carpet comes in widths of 12' and 15'. If the room is wider than 15', the carpet will have to be seamed. Determine how much carpet is needed by measuring the width and length of the room. Add a few inches to both measurements to allow extra carpet for thresholds and doorways. Make a rough drawing of the room and take it to the carpet retail outlet. The sales representative can advise on how much carpet will be needed and can even arrange to have the length cut.

12 * 20 = 240ft squared divide 240 by a square yard = 9 240/9 = 26.6repeating yards square
Assuming the carpet comes in 12 ft wide you need 207 square feet.
