Andy is hanging wallpaper in his kitchen. He is able to cover 2 2/5 of the walls in the room using 6 rolls of wallpaper. What is the number of rolls of paper used per wall?

For 2 2/5 walls, Andy requires = 6 rolls

For 12/5, He requires = 6 rolls

So, for 1 whole wall, it would be: = 6 * 5 /12 = 30/12 = 2.5 rolls

In short, Your Answer would be: 2.5 rolls

Hope this helps!
