Answer:
$225.50 (nearest cent)
Step-by-step explanation:
1 foot ≈ 0.3048 m
Width of room = 15 ft ≈ 15 x 0.3048 = 4.572 m
Length of room = 18 ft ≈ 18 x 0.3048 = 5.4864 m
Area of room = width x length = 4.572 x 5.4864 = 25.0938208... m²
Cost of carpet = $8.99 per m²
Total cost of carpet = 25.0938208 x 8.99 = $225.50 (nearest cent)
