Answer:
[tex]36.1[/tex] square feet of floor was carpeted.
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of Square feet = Length of the room * Width of the room
Now we have to substitute the values to the above equation,
Number of square feet = [tex]20\frac{1}{2} *15\frac{3}{5}[/tex]
=[tex]\frac{41}{2} +\frac{78}{5}[/tex]
=[tex]\frac{205+156}{10}[/tex]
=[tex]\frac{361}{10}[/tex]
=[tex]36.1[/tex] feet
