Answer:

54

Explanation:

Total pictures in the roll = 36

half of the roll = 1/2 of the total pictures in the roll = 1/2 * 36 = 18

Given Paul made 2 prints of each of the half pictures

no. of prints made of half of the pictures = 18*2 = 36

No. of prints left after the half of the roll is printed for two prints= 36-18 = 18

No. of prints made of rest of the pictures 1

Therefore , no of prints made of rest half of pictures = 18*1 = 18

Total prints made = 36 + 18 = 54.

Thus, Paul made 54 prints in all.
