If it took 2/5 gallon of paint to cover 282 square feet of wall in Tom’s garage, how much more paint will he need to paint an additional 423 square feet of wall?

Answered by admin @



Answer:

3/5 gallons of more paint

Explanation:

Given:

Paint required for 282 square feet of area = 2/5 gallon = 0.4 gallons

thus,

by applying the concept of unitary method we have

paint required for 1 square feet of area = (0.4 gallons)/282

therefore,

the paint required for 423 square feet of area = \frac{0.4}{282}\times 423 gallons

or

the paint required for 423 square feet of area = 0.6 gallons = \frac{6}{10}=\frac{3}{5} gallons

hence, 3/5 gallons of more paint will be required.
