----------------------------
Charlie's Carpets:
----------------------------
Carpet : $18/yd
Installation: $2/yd

Discount: 20% x $18 = 0.2 x 18 = $3.60
Carpet Price after discount = $18 - $3.60 = $14.40/yd²

Carpet Price with installation $14.40 + $2 = $16.40/yd²

----------------------------
Cindy's Carpet
----------------------------

Carpet = $18/yd²

Discount = 10% = 0.1 x $18 = $1.80
Price after Discount = $18 - $1.80 = $16.20/yd²

----------------------------
Summary:
----------------------------
Charlie's Carpet = $16.40/yd²
Cindy's Carpet = $16.20/yd²

CIndy's Carpet is cheaper.

----------------------------
Find Cost:
----------------------------
Length = 19 x 1/3 = 19/3 yards
Width = 12 x 1/3 = 4 yards

19/3 x 4 = 25 1/3 yd²

Cost = 25 1/3 x $16.20 = $410.40

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: Cindy's Carpet is cheaper and it will cost $410.40.
