    The first step is to find the installation cost of each flooring.

    let i be the instalation fee, and i2 and i3 correspond to scenarios 2 and 3

    (1.73) (120) + i=740.40

    (4.98) (200) + i2=1,688.00

    (2.48) (180) + i3=928.80

    i=532.8

    i2=692.00

    i3=482.4

    ok, so we have the total installation cost for each room. Now we divide that by square feet.

    532.8/120=4.44

    692.00/200=3.46

    482.4/180 = 2.68

    Ordering that from least to greatest, you get Berber carpet, hand-scraped hardwood, and slate tile, which has the greatest installation fee.
