Answer:
5 doors
Step-by-step explanation:
Can of spray paint : door painted = 2/5 : 1
The worker has 2 cans of spray paint total.
How many doors can the worker paint?
Let x = number of doors the worker can paint
Can of spray paint : door painted
2 : x
Equate both ratios
2/5 : 1 = 2 : x
2/5 ÷ 1 = 2/x
2/5 × 1/1 = 2/x
2/5 = 2/x
Cross product
2 * x = 5 * 2
2x = 10
x = 10/2
x = 5 doors
The worker can paint 5 doors with 2 cans of spray paint
