How do you make wall-to-wall carpet fit the room?
Carpet comes in widths of 12' and 15'. If the room is wider than 15', the carpet will have to be seamed. Determine how much carpet is needed by measuring the width and length of the room. Add a few inches to both measurements to allow extra carpet for thresholds and doorways. Make a rough drawing of the room and take it to the carpet retail outlet. The sales representative can advise on how much carpet will be needed and can even arrange to have the length cut.

How do i convert square feet to a percentage?
Percentages are used when comparing two things. I'll give you an example: You have a piece of carpet and a room to put it in, and you want to know what percentage of the floor the carpet will cover. The carpet is 100 square feet, and the room is 150 square feet. The formula is: (square footage of the carpet / square footage of the room) x 100 100/150 is .6667; multiply that by 100 to get 66.67 percent. If you want to carpet the room wall-to-wall, you need more carpet. OTOH, if you have a 200 square foot carpet and a 100 square foot room... (200/100) x 100 = the carpet is 200 percent of the size of the room, and you'll have to cut half of it off.
