Mr. williams is painting only the back of his barn. a gallon of paint covers 70 square feet. how many square feet will mr. williams be painting? how many gallons of paint does he need to buy? a) 264 ft2; 4 gallons b) 264 ft2; 3 gallons c) 276 ft2; 4 gallons d) 276 ft2; 3 gallons

Area of a rectangle is L * W
A = 12 * 18 = 216 ft^2

area of a triangle is : (h * b) / 2minus the area of the window L * W
A = (10 * 12) / 2 - (4 * 3) = 120/2 - 12 = 60 - 12 = 48 ft^2

216 + 48 = 264 ft^2 <== 
and if a gallon covers 70 sq ft264/70 = 3.77 gallons..rounds to 4 gallons

so ur answer is : A

Im sorry but what on
