Michael wants to change the carpeting in his living room. If his living room is 10 feet by 9 feet, how much carpet should he buy?
A
90 square feet
B
19 square feet
C
120 square feet
D
81 square feet
To find out how much carpet Michael should buy, we need to calculate the area of his living room. We can do this by multiplying the length (10 feet) by the width (9 feet).
Area = Length × Width
Area = 10 feet × 9 feet
Area = 90 square feet
Therefore, Michael should buy 90 square feet of carpet.
The correct answer is A) 90 square feet.
