Answer:

4 gallons of paint

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve using the formula for surface area of rectangular prism.

A=2(wl+hl+hw)

Where:

w = Width

h = Height

l = Length

The pool is 4 feet deep, 18 feet long, and 12 feet wide.

Hence,

=2 × (12 × 18 + 4 × 18 + 4 ×12)

=672 square feet

One gallon of paint covers 155 square feet.

Hence,

155 square feet = 1 gallon of paint

672 square feet = x

Cross Multiply

155 square feet × x = 672 square feet × 1 gallon of paint

x = 672 square feet × 1 gallon of paint/ 155 square feet

x = 4.335483871 gallons of paint

Therefore, based on the calculation above, approximately to the nearest whole number, Sierra uses 4 gallons of paint

Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

220 automóviles

Step-by-step explanation:

Aquí, queremos saber la cantidad de autos que ingresarán al garaje cuando esté completamente ocupado.

De la pregunta, nos dicen que hay 3 pisos. Para el 1er piso, hay 5 filas de 20 lugares.

El número total de autos que pueden estar en esto será 5 * 20 = 100 autos.

Para el segundo y tercer piso, tenemos 4 filas de 15 cada una.

El número total de autos aquí será 2 (15 * 4) = 2 * 60 = 120 autos

El número total de automóviles cuando está completamente ocupado es, por tanto, = 100 + 120 = 220 automóviles
