Question

A room is $5m40cm$ long and $3m75cm$ wide. What area of carpet is needed to cover the floor?

• A. $20.25m^2$
• B. $20.52m^2$
• C. $20.15m^2$
• D. $20.51m^2$

Answer 1

The correct option is A $20.25m^2$

Given:
Length of room $l=5m40cm=5.4m$
Breadth of room $b=3m75cm=3.75m$
We know,
Area of room, $A=l\times b$
$\Rightarrow A=5.4\times 3.75$
$\Rightarrow A=20.25m^2$
