24. Calculating the Amount and Cost of Flooring

25. The formulas for calculating the amount of flooring needed:
L x W = SQUARE FEET OR
L x W = SQUARE YARDS 9

26. Calculate the number of square feet and square yards needed.
Living room that is 18’ x 20’
360 Sq. Feet or 40 Sq. Yards.
Bedroom 12’ x 12’
144 Sq. Feet or 16 Sq. Yards.
Bathroom 9’ x 13’
117 Sq. Feet or 13 Sq. Yards.
Bonus room 21’ x 25’
525 Sq. Feet or 59 Sq. Yards.

27. Calculate the cost.
If you purchase 28 yards of carpet at $13.99/yard how much will you spend?
28 X $13.99 = $391.72
How much would it cost to put vinyl down at $22.00/yard in a kitchen that measures 14 x 18?
14 X 18 / 9 = 28 sq. yards
28 X $22.00 = $616.00
