How many packs of laminate flooring will you need for a 12ft by 14ft room?

It depends on how many square feet the box will cover.

I found two different brands: one covered 22.93 sqft, the other 17.59 sqft.

your room is 12' x 14' = 168 sq.ft

so 168 sqft / (22.93 sqft / box) = 7.32 boxes for my first example

and 168 sqft / (17.59 sqft / box) = 9.55 boxes for my 2nd example
