Question 1036765: Your older friend calls you and says they have a 6 hard by 6 yard tarp they can bring to cover an open area at your cottage. You know the area of the picnic tables to be taped is 48 metres squared. Should your friend bother to bring their tart because it is to small?
Thank you

A 6 yd by 6 yd tarp is only going to cover 36 square yards. Your friend can go ahead and bring over the tarp; but it is going to be too small by at least 12 sq. yds, which are smaller than meters.
