Rug Size Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the rug size (RS) is:

\[ RS = (L + 8) \times (W + 8) \]

Where:

\( RS \) is the rug size in length and width (inches)
\( L \) is the length of the furniture (inches)
\( W \) is the width of the furniture (inches)

What is Rug Size?

Rug size is a measure of the dimensions of a rug needed to accommodate furniture. It is calculated by adding 8 inches to both the length and width of the furniture. This ensures that the rug extends beyond the furniture, providing a balanced and aesthetically pleasing look.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Length of Furniture (L) = 60 inches
Width of Furniture (W) = 30 inches

Using the formula to calculate the rug size:

\[ RS = (60 + 8) \times (30 + 8) = 68 \times 38 \, \text{inches} \]

The rug size is 68 x 38 inches.
