Answer 1

So if the painter uses up to 9 pots of paint each day and works 26 days a month, you would simply have to multiply 9 by 26 which would result in 234 total pots of paint. If the painter paints 6 houses a month you would have to divide 234 by 6 to get how many pots of paint is used to paint each house, which would result in 39 pots of paint per house.
