The amount of paint that would be contained in each of the can would be 8.
<h3>How to solve for the amount of paint.</h3>
Using the information in the question we have the following
We have to solve the equation as
(2 1/2) + 2(4) + 1(5 1/2) =
2.5 + 8 + 5.5
= 16
Each of these would have to hold 16/2 = 8 pints.
