Question

A gallon of paint will cover 144 square feet of floor space. What are the dimensions of the largest square floor that the gallon of paint will cover?
Please Helppppp I will make u brainliest

Answer 1

You want the largest SQUARE floor then both of the sides have to be the same. Since one gallon can cover up 144 square feet, to work out the dimensions you have to find the square root of 144 which is 12. So the largest square floor it can cover has dimensions 12x12 feet.
Hope this helped :)
