8 square feet = 2 hours

°divide 2hrs to 8 square feet

1hr = ?

2÷8 =4

so,

1hr = 4 square feet

In 1 hour 4 square feets will be covered

•4 square feet can be painted in 1 hour.

*now to find how many square can be painted in 7 hrs.

°multiply no. of hours to hd no. of square feet per hour.

7hrs = ?

7×4 =28

So,

28 square feet would be covered in 7 hours.

may this helps you
