( The surface area of the container is about 1601.4 cm )

Question

The container is coated with 2 layers of specialty paint that costs $6.05 per jar. Each jar of paint covers 800 cm squared. How much does the paint cost?

Answer 1

it will take just over 2 jars of paint (1601.4/800 ≈ 2) for a coat.
So, figure the cost of 4 jars of paint.

Answer 2

of course, maybe you want to buy an extra jar for those last 2.8 cm^2 of area. I doubt it.
