A painter can paint 375 square feet in 3 hours, how many square feet can he paint in 7 hours

1 answer

To find out how many square feet a painter can paint in 7 hours, we need to find the painter's painting rate per hour and then multiply that rate by the number of hours.

The painter can paint 375 square feet in 3 hours, so his painting rate is 375 square feet / 3 hours = 125 square feet per hour.

To find out how many square feet the painter can paint in 7 hours, we multiply the painting rate by the number of hours: 125 square feet/hour x 7 hours = <<125*7=875>>875 square feet.

Therefore, the painter can paint 875 square feet in 7 hours.
