Yes; unfortunately, there is no information you had not given to us.
Correcting the grammar of the problem, it is this:
Estimate the number of square rugs of size 17 cm by 17 cm that are needed for a square room of size 4.2 m by 4.2 m.
A. 400 B. 420 C. 441 D. 514 E. 840
(I'm trusting that 4.2 m means what it says, and not 4.2 m^2.)
But as you found, none of the choices fits any interpretation of the situation I have thought of. On the other hand, "estimate" means that you don't have to have an exact number, so you could choose whichever number is closest to your estimate.
But that doesn't give me a good impression of the creator of the problem. In particular, it is not at all clear what "needed" means.
If it means we want to cover as much of the floor as possible with whole rugs, then we can fit 420/17 = 24.7 rugs along a side, but we have to round down to 24, and the answer is 24^2 =
576.
If it means to cover the entire floor with pieces of rug cut in any way necessary, then we need an area of 420^2 = 176,400 cm^2, with each rug being 17^2 = 289 cm^2, so we can fit 176,400/289 = 610.38, and we have to round up to
611.
If we needed to cover the entire floor area, cutting each rug no more than once, then we could fill the empty space around the 576 rugs with pieces of another 24+24+1 rugs, for a total of 576+24+24+1 =
625 rugs. (That is, we round up to 25 rugs on a side and cut off the extra.)
Clearly the room can't be
4.2 m^2, as that would have sides 2.05 m = 205 cm, and we could fit only 12 rugs on a side, for a total of about 144 rugs.
But none of these answers is anywhere near the choices. I was hoping there might be something in the problem statement or its context that would define how the rugs are to be placed, or that a number might have been copied incorrectly.
I think it is simply a bad problem.
