Answer:

462962.96 naira

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is complicated by the use of two different units.  I chose to use inches for the dimensions of the carpet.

200 in long

50 ft wide = 50 x 12 = 600 in.

Area = 200 x 600 = 120000 in^2

A square yard is a square 36 in. x 36 in. = 1296 in^2

Divide 120000 by 1296 to find out how many square yards of carpet you'll need.

120000 / 1296 = 92.59

Multiply by 5000 naira/yd^2 = 462962.96
