A company figured it needed 37.8 sq.feet of carpot for its
reception room. To allow for waste, it decided to order 20%
more material than needed. Fractional parts of sq.feet
cannot be ordered. At Rs.9/- a sq.feet, how much would the
carpet cost?

Answer Posted / yameen yasin

Required Carpot = 37.8 sq feet
20% of 37.8 sq feet = 20% * 37.8 = 7.56 sq feet

Total Order size = 37.8 + 7.56 = 45.36 sq feet
Size orderd = 46 sq feet

Cost of 46 sq feet @Rs9 / sq feet = 46 * 9 = 414 Rs
