Answer 1

Answer:11.25 square feet of each carpet will be needed for the bedroom.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining the area of a square is expressed as

Area = length^2

Marco's bedroom is a square that one side is 7 1/2 feet. Converting

7 1/2 feet to improper fraction, it becomes 15/2 feet.

Therefore, the area of Marco's bedroom would be

(15/2)^2 = 225/4 = 56.25 square feet.

Marco wants to come in at five carpet. It means that the number of square feet of each carpet that will be needed for the bedroom is

56.25/5 = 11.25
