Percents (math- word problem)

Question

julian is painting chevron stripes oh his bedroom wall that is 10ft by 12 ft. He will cover 25% of the wall in yellow paint. What is the area of the wall that will be yellow?

Answer 1

(10)(12)(.25) = 30 square feet painted yellow

120 ft^2 x 1/4 = 30

25%= .25 = 1/4

Area = LW = 10x12 = 120 ft^2
