2 1/2 gallons of paint.

If 1/2 gallon covers 1/5 of the wall, multiply 1/2 gallon by 5 to find how much is needed to cover 5/5, or the entire wall. You get 5/2. Now, simplify. 5/2 = 2 1/2 gallons of paint.

antoniya [11.8K]

Let the unknown number be y.
We can list the equation out by the clues given.
5y + 12 = 52
Then solve this as simple algebra!
Shift +12 to the other side and be - 12
5y = 52-12
5y = 40
Shift x5 to the other side and be ÷5
y = 40 / 5
y = 8
Therfore the unknown number is 8.
