Each pail of plaster covers 90 square feet of ceiling. What is the least number of pails of plaster you would need to buy to cover the ceiling of a square room with walls 14 feet long?

Question

5 pails
6 pails
3 pails (my answer)
4 pails

Answer 1

Because if the room is square, and the walls are 14 ft long, 14 * 14 is 196 square ft. 90 times 3 is 270, and it is the least number there, and 2 (even though it is not there, it would equal 180). Am I right?

Answer 2

3 pails is right.
