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

The required paint for a total of
`1.404\ ft^(2)` is approximate 6 gallons

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`
