Answer:

2.32 gallons of paint

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the area of all 4 sides of the room, with the equation A = lw

11(10)

= 110 (for 2 of the walls)

18(10)

= 180 (for the other 2 walls)

Add these up:

110 + 110 + 180 + 180

= 580

Then, divide this by 250:

580/250

= 2.32

So, 2.32 gallons of paint will be needed to paint the room.
