Finish the program to compute how many gallons of paint are needed to cover the given square feet of walls. Assume 1 gallon can cover 350.0 square feet. So gallons = the square feet divided by 350.0. If the input is 250.0, the output should be:

0.714285714286

Answer:

gallons_paint = wall_area / 350.0

Step-by-step explanation:

So gallons = the square feet divided by 350.0:

So gallons = gallons_paint

the square feet = wall_area

then divide by 350.0

the whole thing:

wall_area = float(input())

# Assign gallons_paint below

gallons_paint = wall_area / 350.0

print(gallons_paint)
