Andre is preparing for the school play and needs to paint the cardboard castle backdrop that measures 16 1/3 feet by 6 feet.

1 answer:

6 0

1. To find how much cardboard he needs to paint you need to find the area of the cardboard which is length times width. So in this case, it would be 16 1/3 feet times 6 feet. Or 49/3 times 6/1. This gives you 294/3 or 98 feet.
2. To find this you would divide the total area by how much area each bottle covers to find how many bottles you need. 98 divided by 30 is 98/30 which reduces to 49/15 or 3 4/15. Since you can’t have 4/15 of a bottle, you’d round up to 5 bottles of paint.
