A tile is drawn at random from the tiles below. What is the probability that it is a consonant and has a point-valula that is less than 3? Write your
answer as a fraction in simplest form.

the given 6 = w/p is equivalent to 6p = w, where w is the total area of the walls and p is the area covered by a single can of paint.

knowing that 6 cans of paint will be needed, 6p = w becomes 6(6) = w = 36.   this tells us that the total area to be painted is 36 square units.
