Answer:
Approximately 2 gallons of paint are required to paint four bedroom walls
Step-by-step explanation:
Dimensions of the four bedroom walls = 10 inches wide by 6 inches tall
As 1 inch = 1.5 feet,
10 inches [tex]=10(1.5)=15[/tex] feets
6 inches [tex]=6(1.5)=9[/tex] feets
Dimensions of the four bedroom walls = 15 feets wide by 9 feets tall
Area of one wall = product of the dimensions [tex]=15(9)=135[/tex] square feets
Area of four walls = [tex]4(135)=540[/tex] square feets
Area of four walls covered by a gallon of paint = 250 square feets
So,
Amount of paint required = [tex]\frac{540}{250}=2.16[/tex]
That is approximately 2 gallons of paint are required to paint four bedroom walls
