Jason has already used 12.3 cans of paint painting furniture. He is painting

chairs that use 6 cans of paint.
Let the total cans of paint used be represented by p.
Let the number of chairs painted be represented by c.
An equation that represents this scenario is:
p = 6c + 12.3
What is the total number of cans used if he paints 8 chairs?
Answer as a decimal.​

Answer:

60.3

If Jason paints 8 chairs, the total number of cans used is:

p(8) = 6(8) + 12.3

p(8) = 48 + 12.3

p(8) = 60.3
