Question

Sancho paints the new sign for his bike shop. One quart of paint covers 200 square

Answer 1

Slit the shape into a rectangle and two triangles:

Rectangle = 9 x 8 = 72 sq. Ft.

Triangle = 1/2 x 8 x 2.5 = 10 sq. Ft x 2 = 20 sq. Ft.

Total area = 72 + 20 = 92 sq. Ft.

3 coats x 92 = 276 sq ft worth of paint.

1 quart covers 200 so he would need to buy 2 quarts:

2 x $8.97 = $17.94 total
