The correct answers are:
- Jesse uses 13 pints of paint for 5 paintings. Therefore, he uses 13/5 = 2.6 pints for each painting.
- If Jesse uses 44 pints of paint, he can complete 44/2.6 = 16.92 paintings. Since he cannot complete a fraction of a painting, he will complete 16 paintings.
- If Jesse needs 29 paintings, he will need 29*2.6 = 75.4 pints of paint.
