Question

If 15 litres of paint covers an area of 250 m2, what area (in m2) will 20 litres of paint cover?

Answer 1

Answer: 333.33m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are informed that 15 litres of paint covers an area of 250 m2, the the area that 1 liter of paint will cover will be:

= 250m²/15

= 16.666667m²

Therefore, the area that 20 litres of paint will cover will be:

= 16.666667m² × 20

= 333.33m²
