8 litres of paint can cover 129.6m2.How much paint is required to paint an area of 243m
im stupid
8/129.6 = x/243
Multiply both sides by 243, then divide both by 129.6 to find x.
can you please elaborate, im confused/stupid
243 m^2 * 8 liters / 129.6 m^2 = 15 liters
You are not stupid! Everyone has different strengths and areas of knowledge. I'm here to help you with your question.
To find out how much paint is required to paint an area of 243m², we can use a proportion.
First, let's set up the proportion:
(8 litres / 129.6m²) = (x litres / 243m²)
To solve this proportion, we can cross multiply and then solve for x:
(8 litres) * (243m²) = (129.6m²) * (x litres)
1944 litres = 129.6m² * x litres
Now, divide both sides of the equation by 129.6m²:
1944 litres / 129.6m² = x litres
x = 15 liters (rounded to the nearest liter)
Therefore, approximately 15 liters of paint is required to paint an area of 243m².
