Jesse uses 2.6 pints of paint for each painting.
If he uses 44 pints of paint, he will be able to complete approximately 16.92 paintings.
For 29 paintings, he will need approximately 75.4 pints of paint.
The correct answer is:
Jesse uses 13 pints of paint for 5 paintings, so he uses an average of 13/5 = 2.6 pints for each painting.
If he uses 44 pints, he can do 44/2.6 = 16.92 paintings. Since he can't do a fraction of a painting, he will complete 16 paintings.
If he needs 29 paintings, he will need 29 * 2.6 = 75.4 pints of paint.
To find out how many pints of paint Jesse uses for each painting, you need to divide the total pints of paint (13) by the total number of paintings (5).
The calculation would be: 13 / 5 = 2.6 pints per painting.
Therefore, Jesse uses 2.6 pints of paint for each painting.
To find out how many paintings Jesse will complete if he uses 44 pints of paint, you need to divide the total pints of paint (44) by the number of pints per painting (2.6).
The calculation would be: 44 / 2.6 = 16.92 paintings.
Therefore, Jesse will complete approximately 16.92 paintings if he uses 44 pints of paint.
To find out how many pints of paint Jesse will need for 29 paintings, you need to multiply the number of paintings (29) by the pints per painting (2.6).
The calculation would be: 29 * 2.6 = 75.4 pints.
Therefore, Jesse will need approximately 75.4 pints of paint for 29 paintings.
