Answer 1

This code calculates the amount of paint needed to cover a wall based on its dimensions.

Step-by-step explanation:

This code calculates the amount of paint needed to cover a wall. It takes the height and width of the wall as input, calculates the area of the wall, and then divides it by the coverage of one can of paint to determine the number of cans needed.

For example, if the height of the wall is 10 feet and the width is 8 feet, the area of the wall would be 80 square feet. If each can of paint covers 350 square feet, then the code would calculate that 0.23 cans of paint are needed to cover the wall, which would round up to 1 can.

The code then outputs the area of the wall, the amount of paint needed in gallons, and the number of cans needed.
