Answer:
50 lbs.
Step-by-step explanation:
To convert a fraction to a decimal, divide the numerator by the denominator (divide the top by the bottom)
The total area of the room is 37.6376 and the no. of cans required to paint the wall is 3 cans.
The measurement of two of the walls is 2.86 metres and 3.16 metre
Area of the two walls = 2(length x breadth)
Area = 2(2.86 x 3.16) = 18.0752 m²
The measurement of the other two walls is 2.86 metres and 3.42 metres
Area of the two walls = 2(length × breadth)
Area = 2(2.86 × 3.42) = 19.5624 m²
Total area = 18.0752 + 19.5624 = 37.6376 m²
If one can of paint can cover 15 m², the no. of cans required to paint the bedroom will be
No. of cans = Total area/Area covered by one can of paint
No. of cans = 37.6376/15 = 2.5091 = 3 cans (approx.)
