Andrew needed 14 gallons of paint to cover a 430 square foot structure. Now he will be painting a 700 square foot structure. How many gallons he need?

Question

i need answers please

Answer 1

First you need to find the number of gallons needed to cover 1 square foot:

 

14 gallons/ 430 square feet = 0.03256 gallons per square foot.

 

Then multiply this by the number of square feet you need to cover:

 

14/430 * 700 = 22.8 gallons.
