Answer:

C. $133.96

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert units:

12 · 0.305 = 3.66 m

8 · 0.305 = 2.44 m

Find the area of the room:

3.66 m · 2.44 m = 8.9304 m²

Find the cost:

8.9304 · 15 = 133.96

C. $133.96

12ft = 3.66 sq meters
8ft = 2.44 sq meters

3.66 x 2.44 = 8.9304

8.9304 x 15 = 133.956
