If 3/4 gallon of paint covers 1/3 of the wall, then how much paint is needed for the entire wall?
3/4=1/3 of all
times 3 both sides
9/4=3/3 of all
9/4=all
need 9/4 gallons or 2 and 1/4 gallons
The paint needed for the entire wall is 9/4 gallons.
Given:
The 3/4 gallons of paint are required to cover 1/3 portion of the wall.
To find:
The paint needed for the entire wall.
Solution:
The volume of the paint required to cover 1/3 portion of wall = 3/4
The volume of paint required to cover the entire wall:
\(=\frac{3}{4}\times \frac{3}{1}\\\\=\frac{9}{4} gallon\)
The paint needed for the entire wall is 9/4 gallons.
