Beth wants to paint her rectangular night stand that is 42 inches long and 28 inches wide a quart of paint covers about 350 square inches. how many quarts of paint will Beth need to cover the entire night stand
First multiply 42x28=1,176. Then you divide 1,176 by 350 i get 3 with remainder 126. So you would need 4 quarts of paint in order to cover the nightstand.
