Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

The estimated area is $416\frac{13}{16}\ ft^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To estimate the area that Ivan will paint , calculate the area of one wall and then multiply by 3

step 1

Convert the dimensions to an improper fractions

$9\frac{3}{4}\ ft=\frac{9*4+3}{4}=\frac{39}{4}\ ft$

$14\frac{1}{4}\ ft=\frac{14*4+1}{4}=\frac{57}{4}\ ft$

step 2

Find the area of one wall

$(\frac{39}{4})*(\frac{57}{4})=\frac{2,223}{16}\ ft^{2}$

step 3

Multiply the area of one wall by 3

$(3)*\frac{2,223}{16}=\frac{6,669}{16}\ ft^{2}$

step 4

Convert to mixed number

$\frac{6,669}{16}=\frac{6,656}{16}+\frac{13}{16}=416\frac{13}{16}\ ft^{2}$
