One litre of paint should cover 50 m of surface area. If a basement is 15.5 m by 10.5 m, how many litres of paint must a person buy to cover the basement floor?

Respuesta :

Answer:

4 liters of paint should cover the area of the basement since there can't be 3.255 liters of paint

Step-by-step explanation:

Area: 162.75

162.75/50 = 3.255

3.255 ==> 4
