Jasmine is painting a rectangular wall in her bedroom that has a base of 12 feet and a height of 8 feet. There is a square window on the wall with a side length of 3 feet. She has enough paint to cover 90 square feet. Does she have enough paint? Explain your reasoning.

12 × 8 = 96 3 × 3 = 9 96 - 9 = 87

87 < 90 so no
