Answer :
Answer:
112.875 ft ²
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey There!
The first step to solving this problem is to find the area of the whole room
To do that we use the equation [tex]lxw[/tex] ( length times width)
[tex]12\frac{6}{12} x 9 \frac{9}{12}[/tex]
if you plug that into a calculator you get that the area of the room is 121.875ft²
But we are not done because the problem says that there is a part of the room that is not going to get covered so to finish we find the area of that section and subtract it from 121.875
2x3=9
121.875-9=112.875
So we can conclude that the area of the room that is getting covered by carpet is 112.875 ft ²
