First we need to find the area of the fence, since paint covers square feet and squared units refers to area. The area of the fence is 26 x 7, which is 182 sq ft. If one gallon of paint will cover 350 sq ft, your proportion will look like this, with gallons of paint on top and square feet on the bottom.
. Cross multiply to get 350x = 182 and x = .52, just a bit over a half of a gallon of paint.
Answer: 24.8
Explanation: If Henry is halving a number, that means he's dividing it by 2, getting two halves. You would get the original number by undoing that division, or multiplying the product by 2.
2 x 12.4 = 24.8
First, you want to establish your equations.
L=7W-2
P=60
This is what we already know. To find the width, we have to plug in what we know into P=2(L+W), our equation to find perimeter.
60=2(7W-2+W)
Now that we only have 1 variable, we can solve.
First, distribute the 2.
60=14W-4+2W
Next, combine like terms.
60=16W-4
Then, add four to both sides.
64=16W
Lastly, divide both sides by 16
W=4
To find the length, we plug in our width.
7W-2
7(4)-2
28-2
L=26
Simplify both sides of the equation.

If u do the formula m=y^2-y^1/x^2-x^1 then u have 3-2/6-0 and that simplifies to 1/6 and that is your answer
answer: 1/6
