Question

Tyler painted 9/2 square yards of wall area with three gallons of paint how many gallons does it take to paint each square yard of wall

Answer 1

To calculate how many gallons of paint it takes to paint each square yard of wall, we can use the information provided by Tyler's painting project. Here's how it's done:

1. First, we know that Tyler painted
`\( (9)/(2) \)` square yards of wall area.

2. We also know that Tyler used 3 gallons of paint for this area.

The formula to calculate the number of gallons per square yard is:

`\[\text{Gallons per square yard} = \frac{\text{Total gallons of paint used}}{\text{Total square yards painted}}\]`

Let's do the math.

It takes approximately 0.67 gallons of paint to cover each square yard of wall area.
