Rectangular area A = 28 ft x 18 ft

. A = 504 ft2

Quarter paint area Q = 85 ft2

Then divide A/Q = 5.92 = 5 + 0.92

In consecuence are needed 5 quarters of paint, that costs

5x 12.50 = 62.5

Add a fraction of 0.92 ,that costs. 0.92 x12.50 = 11.5

Then Carrie have to pay

62.5 + 11.5 = 74

Answer is $ 74 dollars
