Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

A rectangle's area can be calculated by multiplying its length and its width. The wall is made up of 5 different types of rectangular walls. All walls are 8 feet tall but the length varies.

Step 2:

The area of the 20 feet long wall =

The area of the 10 feet long wall =

The area of the 5 feet long wall =

The area of the 4 feet long wall =

The area of the 15 feet long wall =

The area of all the walls = 432 square feet.

Since there are two sides for every wall, total area = square feet.

Step 3:

If one paint can covers 500 square feet,

the number of cans required to paint 864 square feet = cans.

so 2 paint cans are needed to paint 864 square feet which is option B.
