What characteristic must carpet have if used as a floor covering in schools or salons?

  1. Lightweight and portable

  2. Closely woven and easily cleanable

  3. Brightly colored

  4. Made from natural fibers only

The correct answer is: Closely woven and easily cleanable

Carpet used as a floor covering in schools or salons must be closely woven and easily cleanable in order to withstand high foot traffic and regular cleaning. Option A, lightweight and portable, is incorrect because carpet in these venues should be durable and long-lasting rather than portable. Option C, brightly colored, is incorrect because while it may be visually appealing, it is not a necessary characteristic for carpet to have in these environments. Option D, made from natural fibers only, is also incorrect because synthetic fibers can also be durable and easily cleanable for these settings.
