Question

Tom wants new carpeting for his bedroom. His room is a 999 meters by 777 meters rectangle. How much carpeting does he need to buy to cover his entire bedroom floor?

Answer 1

Answer:

777,223 meters squared

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the amount of carpeting, we must find the area of the floor of Tom's bedroom.

To find area, we multiply the length and width of the rectangle.

999 x 777 = 776,223

Remember, when we find the area, we must give the answer in square units.

Our final answer is 777,223 meters squared
