You are carpeting a room that is 20’-5”x 12’-9”. How many square yards of carpet do you need?
Roughly 22 square yards.
144 square feet. (12 x 12 = 144) or 16 square yards.

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.
You have to multiply the two dimensions to get the area. In this case the answer will be 108 square feet. Divide by 9 to get 12 square yards.
No. Many stores have went to square foot pricing because it is easier to visualize a square foot and also the square foot price is smaller. Carpet mills still require purchase orders in square yards and is still the standard for which carpet is sold. Home Depot, the leading carpet seller in America prices there carpets in both square yard pricing and square foot.

It depends on the width of the carpet.
Broken down as follows: 30 feet = 10 yards 36 feet = 12 yards 10 x 12 = 120 square yards

There are 9 square feet in one square yard, so 696SF = 77.33 Square Yards. However, because carpet comes in different widths, you usually have to buy more than the exact amout to avoid small patches (unless the carpet width fits the room exactly). If the room is 24feet by 29feet, you could probably find carpet that is 12feet wide, resulting in no scraps (two 12 foot sections cover the 24 foot dimension).
