Answer:
32.26 ft approximately
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are asked to calculate how wide would a mural of a certain height is, if a paint capable of covering a certain area can be used to paint it without any extra cost of buying more paint.
This is pretty straightforward. It is in the sense that we already have the area the paint could cover, the height of the mural and what we simply need is the width of the mural.
The width of the mural can be calculated by dividing the area of the mural by the height of the mural.
Mathematically; A = w * h
Where w = ?, A = 500 sq.feet and h = 15.5ft
500 = w * 15.5
w = 500/15.5
w = 32.26 ft (approximately)
