You want to have your carpet cleaned in your living room which measures 11' by 14'. A company charges $2.75 per square foot and company B charges $450 per room. Which company should you hire to get a better deal?

Since, company A charge of $423.5 is less than company B charge of $450

Hence,

Company A should be hired to get the better deal.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimension of room: 11 * 14 foot

Area of rectangle is given by length * width

Thus,

area of room using above formula = 11*14 square foot = 154 square foot

For company A

charge for 1 square foot = $2.75

Charge for room = charge for 1 square foot * area of room

= 2.75 * 154 = 423.5

Thus, Total money charged by company A as calculated above is $423.5

Given,

company B charges $450 per room

Since, company A charge of $423.5 is less than company B charge of $450

Hence,

Company A should be hired to get the better deal.
