18.6666 or if you round 18.7ft.

45÷ 3 is 15

280 ÷ 15 is 18.6666 aka 18.7ft

Answer: They can paint 18.6 ft2 with 3 gallons of paint.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question, first, we have to divide the square feet painted (280) by the gallons of paint used.

Mathematically speaking

280 /45 = 6.2 ft2

We have calculated the number of square feet that 1 gallon of paint can paint.

So, for 3 gallons of paint we simply multiply that result by 3.

6.2 x 3 =18.6 ft2
