If a paint can will cover 29.2 m2, how long will I be able to paint along a wall that is 240cm high

29.2m^2= 2.X is your unknown.we set them equal to each other because the paint can only cover the same amount it contains.solve for X and that gives your answer.-29.......

Please explain how you got the answer. Thanks.

First of all, convert all your units so that they will all be the same. So take 240cm to be 2.4m.

Area= base*height

29.2m^2= 2.4m * X

X is your unknown.

we set them equal to each other because the paint can only cover the same amount it contains.

solve for X and that gives your answer.

29.2 m^2 = 2.4m * X

===> X = 29.2/2.4 = 12.17 meters

100 cm = 1 m
