If a room is 10 feet by 21 feet then its area = 10 * 21 = 210 square feet. There are 3 feet in a yard. There are therefore 3 * 3 = 9 square feet in a square yard. Thus to convert we now divide by 9.
Therefore this is 210/9 = 23 1/3 square yards.
Alternatively, and if you prefer, you can convert your measurements first. As there are 3 feet to a yard then 10 feet = 10/3 = 3 1/3 yards. 21 feet = 21/3 = 7 yards.
3 1/3 * 7 = 23 1/3 square yards.

1 square yard = 9 square feetCost = (21 x 12) x 14.50 / 9 = 3,654 / 9 = $406
810.60 for the carpeting.
(12-ft x 21-ft) / (9 square feet per square yard) = 28 square yards
21 ft * 12 ft = 7 yards * 4 yards = 28 sq yards 28 sq yds @ 14.50 per yard = 406.00
21*19 = 399 square feet.
