Answer:
The answer to your question is 8 quarts
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
1/3 gallon -- 1/6 of a wall
the number of quarts = ?
Process
1.- Use proportions to calculate the gallons of paint.
1/3 of a gallon ---------------- 1/6 of a wall
x ----------------- 1 (all the wall)
x = (1 x 1/3) / 1/6
-Simplification
x = 1/3 / 1/6
x = 6/3
x = 2 gallons
2.- Convert gallons to quarts
1 gallons --------------- 4 quarts
2 gallons --------------- x
x = (2 x 4) / 1
x = 8 / 1
x = 8 quarts
