Paint costs $29.95 per gallon. Nikki needs 12.25 gallons to complete a painting project. How much will Nikki spend on paint? (Round to the nearest penny)
Since you can't by 1/4 of a bucket of paint you round 12 up to 13. next you multiply the cost of each gallon (29.95) by the number needed (13) when you do this you get 29.95*13=398.35 so she would spend $398.35
