Mike is redecorating his office’s conferences rooms. When they were last painted it took 20 pints of paint. The paint he is using only comes in liters. How many liters will he need to buy to paint the room?

Previously the volume of paint consumed was: 20 pints

New paint is available in unit of liters.

since, 1 pint = 0.47 liter

20 pint = 9.46 liters (10 liters approx.)

Mike will need to buy 10 liters of paint.
