Parvati bought 8 gallons of paint for a project. The kind of paint she bought is priced by the gallon. In total, the paint cost $144.

Question

Which person bought the same kind of paint as Parvati?

Answer 1

To find out which person bought the same kind of paint as Parvati, we need to determine the cost per gallon of paint.

If Parvati bought 8 gallons of paint for $144, we can divide the total cost by the number of gallons to find the cost per gallon.

144 / 8 = $18 per gallon

Therefore, the person who bought the same kind of paint as Parvati is the one who also paid $18 per gallon.
