Answer:
540 ft² ; 60 yd²
Step-by-step explanation:
1 square yard = 9 ft²
Dimension of room:
24ft 0in by 22ft 6in
1 in = 1/12 ft
6in = (1/12) * 6 ft = 0.5 feet
Hence, Dimension of room in feet ;
24ft by 22.5 ft ;
Square feet of ceiling tiles; (24 * 22.5)ft² = 540ft²
Square yards of carpet needed :
1 yd² = 9 ft²
Let yd² of carpet needed = x
1 yd² = 9 ft²
x yd² = 540 ft²
Cross multiply ;
9x = 540
x = 540 / 9
x = 60
Hence, 60yd² of carpet is needed
