Answer 1

Mr Harding have enough paint left to paint the second bathroom.

Explanation:

We have been given that Mr Harding will paint two bathrooms. He will buy 6 gallons of paint and used 1/3 of the amount for the first bathroom.

First of all, we will find the gallons used for 1st bathroom by finding 1/3 of 6 gallons as:

`\text{gallons used for 1st bathroom}=(1)/(3)* 6`

`\text{Gallons used for 1st bathroom}=2`

Therefore, Mr Harding used 2 gallons of paint for the 1st bathroom.

Since Mr Harding bought 6 gallons of paint, so after using 2 gallons of paint Mr Harding will have 4 gallons left.

Therefore, Mr. Harding have enough paint left for the 2nd bathroom.
