Question

If one gallon of paint will cover 57,600 square inches, how many gallons would be needed to give two cost of paint to 25,000 boards

Answer 1

5.20 gallon paint is requires to paint 25,000 boards.

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all we have to make the units same for all the data so,

                        25,000 boards = 300000 sq inch

Noe,

 1 gallon paint covers = 57600 sq inch

$\frac{300000}{57600}$ gallon paint covers = 300000 sq inch

5.20 gallon paint covers = 300000 sq inch

Hence,

5.20 gallon paint is required to paint the 25000 boards ( 300000 sq inch)
