Best Answer

That roll of carpet has the square yardage of its width measured in yards multiplied by its length measured in yards.

You may need to unroll it to find the length exactly, or if you are only looking for an approximate area and hence length, you can assume the roll is made up of concentric rings of carpet, measure the diameter of each ring from the inside to the outside (to the backing of the carpet) and use these find the circumference of each ring and sum them - this sum can be calculated by summing the diameters and multiplying that sum by π. The last ring will not usually not be a full ring, so it can either be measured directly or added in as a fraction of the whole ring multiplied by its diameter.

How many square yards of carpet are needed to cover a floor that is 9 feet by 10 feet?

10 square yards. Note, the amount of carpet you have to pay for may actually be more than 10 square yards as you will have to buy the entire width of the roll * the length you need. Assuming it is 12' wide you would need 12 square yards and if its 15' wide you would need 15 yards. No carpet store sells carpet by what you need but only by what the width of the roll is. So if you need a 10 x 9 piece, the carpet only comes 12 foot wide so you would take home a piece of carpet 12 x 9.

How many feet are in 400 square yards of carpet or how large would the roll be?

The roll would have 3600 sq ft of carpet. It is very uncommon to see a roll this large unless it is a thin indoor/outdoor...but even for those that is large. A roll this size would be too large for anyone to move without a carpet pole on a truck. Most mills will not ship carpet larger then about 133.33 sq yards. They will ask you to request cut sizes. Just verify these are coming from 1 dye lot. As to how big the roll would be would depend on the thickness of the carpet. It would be over 4 ft wide easily and with an average plush closer to 5 ft wide.

How do I convert square feet of carpet to yards. I need 40 yards but the roll says it is 1800 Square Feet of Tan Berber Carpet 12' x 150' - what is the formula to convert so I know how many yards?

There are 9 square ft in a square yard. So if you have 1800 square feet of carpet on this roll you only need to divide it by 9. So, the roll of carpet you are looking at is 200 yards.

500 square feet is how many yards of carpet?

55.56 yards of carpeting. Just divide the feet by 9 and that gives you the yards. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The above will give you square yards of floor, but you need to know what size the roll of carpet is. Example, if the carpet comes on a 12 foot roll and the room is 10 by 20 (200 sq ft or 22.22 sq yrd) but you would have to buy 12 by 20 (240 sq ft or 26.66 sq yrd). You need to determine the size of each piece of carpet and then figure your squre feet /9.

If carpet is 11.26 per sq yard and the carpet is 12' width how much is it per lineal foot?

Every 9 inches of a roll with a 12-foot width is a square yard. This means every lineal or running foot of 12-foot wide carpet is 1 1/3 square yards of carpet. If carpet is $11.26 per square yard, a running foot of our carpet on the roll would cost about $15. The actual answer is $15 and 1 & 1/3 cents a lineal foot.

How much carpet is needed for a room that is 5 yards long and 4 yards wide?

Your carpet choice may come in different widths, so this question can have multiple answers. Taking the most common length of 12 feet wide roll, which is your 4 yard width needed and multiple it by the 5 yards or 15 feet. Your answer is in feet or yards, but it is sold by the linear running yard. So you want running 15 feet of this. You Pay by the square yard price. This would be 20 square yards you pay for.
