Answer 2

1.548 gallons

Explanation:

Length of the rectangular wall = 25.1 ft.

Width of the rectangular wall = 18.5 ft.

Area of the rectangular wall = length * width = 25.1 * 18.5

= 464.35 square feet

300 square feet wall can be painted using 1 gallon of paint.

=> 1 square feet wall can be painted using
`\[(1)/(300)\]` gallon of paint.

=> 464.35 square feet wall can be painted using
`\[(1)/(300) * 464.35\]` gallon of paint.

= 1.548 gallons of paint
