When buying is taken into account only the length, but the width of the material standard. So if you have the length of the room 5 meters and a width of 3, you will approach, for example, linoleum three-meter wide and five meters running. You only pay for the square footage. But remember that if the width is less, and the meter is cheaper. But to save in this way will not work, you will have to join the coverage.

Once you measure out the material, you can make some simple calculations. Multiply the length by the cost and get the amount you need to pay at the checkout.
