Taylor wants to paint his rectangular deck that is 42 ft long and 28 ft wide. A gallon of pain covers 350 sq ft. How many gallons of pain will Taylor need to cover the entire deck? Write and solve an equation to find the area of the deck.

Respuesta :

He will need 3 111/116 gallons of paint. Equation: (42x28)÷350=3 111/116 gallons of paint
Area Equation: 42x28=1176 square feet

42ft*28ft=1176ft²
1176ft²/350ft²=3.36
So, you multiply 42 and 28 in order to find out how large of a space you are needing to paint. You then find out your deck is 1176 square feet. You would then divide by the paint bucket's coverage to find out how many buckets you would need. Then all you have to do is round up so you completely cover it and your answer is 4 buckets of paint, assuming a bucket of paint contains a gallon of paint..
