Carpet to cover a room 23.6 feet by 16 feet?
This will depend on the direction you want your seam to be. There will be several ways to place a seam. Looking at were doors are, heavy traffic areas, and the type of carpet will determine this. You could buy 2) 12' x 16' pieces that would be 284 sq ft or 42.67 square yards depending on which way you prefer. The other way would be to put a seam along the side of the room. For this you would need 1) 12' x 23'6" piece and another 12' x 8' piece for fill along the side. With this method you would have 378 sq ft or 42 square yards.
What will it cost to carpet a rectangular floor measuring 18 feet by 12 feet if the carpet costs 23.54 per square yard?
1 yd = 3 ft 1 sq yd = 1 yd × 1 yd = = 3 ft × 3 ft = 9 sq ft As a mathematical problem, it is: area of floor in sq yd × cost per sq yd = (18 ft × 12 ft) / 9 ft/sq yd × 23.54/sq yd = 564.96 ----------------------------------------------------------- Real life is slightly difference as you have to buy a piece that is a complete width off a roll of carpet If the roll of carpet is 12 ft or 18 ft wide this is not a problem. However, if it is, say, 13 ft (4m) wide, then you will need to buy 18 ft × 13 ft which would cost 18 × 13 ÷ 9 × 23.54 = 612.04 You may argue that you could buy a shorter piece and use the 1 ft piece cut off the side to fill in to the end of the room. With a plain carpet this may be possible, but would involve lots of joins; with a patterned carpet it would be nearly impossible as the pattern would be required to match across the joins.
