30 by 40 = 1200 sq.ft.

divide by 10 = 12 square

3tab and arch shingles are 3 bundle per square

12 sq. x 3 bundles = 36 bundles

3tab = 26 shingle per bundle

arch = 22 shingle per bundle

36 bundle x 26 = 936 3tab shingles

36 bundle x 22 = 792 arch shingles

How many squares of shingles do you need to cover 1900 ft roof?

One square covers 100 square feet, so to cover 1900 square feet of roof you would need 19 squares. However, you also need "starter shingles" and "hip and ridge" shingles, plus you need to have a few extras because of waste from cutting angles. Starter shingles go around the perimeter of the roof as a bottom layer for the first course of shingles. Hip and ridge shingles go, as you might expect, on the hips and ridges. In order to know for sure the exact quantity you would need for the entire roofing job you have to measure all of these areas.
