The area of a wall in a house is 10.37 square metres. If a can of paint covers 3.1 square metres, how many cans of paint are needed to paint the wall?

4 cans of paint

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the area of the wall and divide by the area that the can of pain will cover

10.37 / 3.1

3.34516129 cans

We need to round up to make sure we buy enough cans of paint

4 cans of paint

We can take area as,

Area = A

The required formula is,

→ A of wall ÷ A that paint's can will cover

Then find the no. of cans of paint that are needed to paint the wall.

Now use the formula,

→ A of wall ÷ A that paint's can will cover

→ 10.37 ÷ 3.1

→ 3.34516129032

→ 4 cans (by nearest value)

Hence, we need 4 cans to paint the wall.
