Answer 1

To solve the problems regarding Jesse's paint usage, we start by calculating the amount of paint per painting.

1. Paint per painting:

   • Jesse uses 13 pints of paint for 5 paintings.
   • Amount of paint used per painting = Total paint / Total paintings = 13 pints / 5 paintings = 2.6 pints per painting.

2. Number of paintings with 44 pints:

   • To find out how many paintings Jesse can complete with 44 pints, we divide the total pints by the amount needed per painting:
   • Number of paintings = Total pints / Paint per painting = 44 pints / 2.6 pints/painting ≈ 16.92 paintings.

3. Pints needed for 29 paintings:

   • To find the total amount of paint needed for 29 paintings, we multiply the amount of paint per painting by the number of paintings:
   • Total pints = Paint per painting × Number of paintings = 2.6 pints/painting × 29 paintings = 75.4 pints.

Now, combining all this information, we get the following results:

• Jesse uses 2.6 pints for each painting.
• He can complete approximately 16.92 paintings with 44 pints.
• He will need 75.4 pints for 29 paintings.

The correct option that matches all answers is:
