Question

How many square meters of carpet will be required for a square room of side $6.5m$ to be carpeted.

Answer 1

Determine the carpet required for the square room

Given, side of square room $=6.5m$

As the carpet will be spread across the square room, so the area of carpet required will be equal to the area of square room.

Now, area of the square room $={\left(side\right)}^2={\left(6.5\right)}^2=42.25m^2$

Hence, $42.25m^2$ square meters of carpet will be required for the square room
