Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first measure the four walls.  We'll have 2 walls 48 ft wide x 18 ft high (the longer walls), then 2 walls 36 ft x 18 ft high.

These are rectangles we can easily calculate the area:

longer walls: 2 (48 * 18) = 2 * 864 = 1,728 sq ft

shorter walls: 2 (36 x 18) = 2 * 648 = 1,296 sq ft

Total of the walls: 1,728 + 1,296  = 3,024 sq ft.

Now, we assume they'll paint everything and that there are no windows.

Each can covers 400 sq ft.

If we divide 3,024 by 400 we get 7.56

So, they'll need to buy 8 cans of paint to do the job.  In such problems, we always round up, otherwise they wouldn't have enough paint.

Jenna goes for a jog every morning. The line plot shows the number of hours she jog for 5 days how many total hours did she draw
vichka [17]
You need to show the line put. If you show the line plot i may be able to answer. But F.Y.I. you are going to probably using proportions or need to multiply the hours she jogs in one day by the 5 days. Hope this helps.
