How to determine rug size for under bed

I am thinking about putting a rug under thd bed. How do you pick the right size. It will be a full size bed. The room is 13x14. I think I want it sticking our from the end of the bed and a little on the sides.

I'd want to see at least two to three feet on each side. Another option would be smaller rugs on each side, rather than one large one, where most of it would be under the bed.

18 inches sticking out on either side.

Measure how many inches you want it to stick out from the bed add that to the bed measurement. Easy peasy.

This is from thespruce dot com. I can't post the link, because it has advertisements. It's an article about how to choose the right size rug for a bedroom.

Area Rugs Under the Bed

You have two options for positioning a rug underneath the bed: the bed (along with the nightstands) sits entirely on the rug, or the lower two-thirds of the bed sits on the rug, leaving the top of the bed and the nightstands on bare floor. In either case, the rug needs to extend at least twelve inches out from the sides and the bottom of the bed if it’s a twin or full mattress, and at least eighteen inches out from the sides and bottom of a queen or king mattress.

Use the following rough guidelines for a queen or king size bed:

9x12 rug to hold the entire bed, the nightstands, and a bench at the foot of the bed.
8x10 rug to hold the entire bed, the nightstands, but no bench.
8x10 rug to hold the bottom two-thirds of the bed and a bench.
6x9 rug to hold the bottom two-thirds of the bed with no bench.

Use the following rough guidelines for a twin or full-size bed:

6x9 rug to hold the entire bed, the nightstand, and a bench at the foot of the bed.
5x8 rug to hold the bottom two-third of the bed and the nightstands.
9x12 rug to hold two twin beds, nightstands, and benches.
