A living room is two times as long and one and one-half times as wide as a bedroom. The amount of carpet needed for the living room is how many times greater than the amount of carpet needed for the
bedroom?
1 1/2
2
3
3 1/2

3

Step-by-step explanation:

let's call X the length of the bedroom, Y the wide of the bedroom, A the length of the living room and B the wide of the living room

A living room is two times as long as the bedroom, so:

A = 2X

A living room is one and one-half times as wide as a bedroom, so:

B = 1.5Y

The amount of carpet needed for the living room is A*B and the amount of carpet needed by the bedroom is X*Y

So, AB in terms of XY is:

A*B = (2X)*(1.5Y) = 3(X*Y)

It means that the amount of c arpet needed for the living room is 3 times greater than the amount of carpet needed for the  bedroom.
