Question

If the walls are 9' high, how much paint would I need to buy to paint the walls of all three bedrooms?

Answer 1

Answer:

The required paint for a total of $1.404\ ft^{2}$ is approximate 6 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To find how much paint would I need to buy to paint the walls of all three bedrooms, calculate the area of all three bedrooms

Master Bedroom

The area is equal to

$A1=(16+16+12+2+18)*9=576\ ft^{2}$

2 Bedroom

The area is equal to

$A2=(12+14+10+10)*9=414\ ft^{2}$

3 Bedroom

The area is equal to

$A3=(10+10+14+10+2)*9=414\ ft^{2}$

The total area is equal to

A=A1+A2+A3

$A=576+414+414=1.404\ ft^{2}$

Approximate one gallon of paint covers 250 square feet

so

$1.404/250=5.6\ gal$
