Answer:

$424

Step-by-step explanation:

Find area of all surfaces to be covered

20 x 30 = 600 ceiling

10 x 20 = 200 x 2 = 400 two walls

10 x 30 = 300 x = 600 other two walls

Assume no doors

total area is 1600 square feet

multiply by 2 because you are doing two coats

3200 total area to be covered

3200/400 = 8 gallons of paint x $53 = $424
