To find out how many cubic inches of paint it takes to cover a wall with an area of 9600 square inches, we need to convert the area from square inches to square feet. Since 1 square foot is equal to 144 square inches, we divide 9600 by 144:
9600 sq in รท 144 sq in/sq ft = 66.67 sq ft
Now, we can calculate how many quarts of paint it takes to cover 66.67 square feet:
1 quart covers 100 square feet
So, to cover 66.67 square feet, we can use the following proportion:
1 quart / 100 square feet = x quarts / 66.67 square feet
Cross-multiplying, we have:
100 * x quarts = 1 * 66.67
x quarts = 66.67 / 100
x quarts = 0.6667 quarts
Therefore, it takes approximately 0.6667 quarts of paint to cover a wall with an area of 9600 square inches.
one quart of paint covers 100 sq ft. how many cubic inches of paint does it take to cover a wall with an area of 9600 sq in
