Aisha wants to paint the four walls of her living room. Each wall is 2.1 m high and 4.5 m long. One wall has a door of 1.8 m by 0.9 m. Tins of paint cost £10 per 1.5 L tin. Each litre of paint can cover 12 m2 of wall. There is an offer of: Buy 2 tins get the 3rd at half price. How much will Aisha pay to paint her living room?

£25 or £20.10

Step-by-step explanation:

calculate the area to be painted:

2.1x4.5= 9.45m^2 for each wall

x4= 37.8m^2

area of door= 1.8x0.9= 1.62m^2

subtract the area of the door from the wall area

37.8-1.62= 36.18m^2 to be painted

divide the area by the area that 1L of paint can cover

16.18/12= 3.015 L needed

if 1.5L= £10 then, 3L= £20. she needs 2 cans + an extra 0.015 L- so another can (3 cans total) add price up.

£30- but buy 2 get 3rd 1/2 price, so take £5 off. price is £25

or

calculate price for 0.015L

1.5=£10

divide both sides by 100

0.015= £ 0.10

if 1.5L= £10 then, 3L= £20. she needs 2 cans + an extra 0.015 L

£20+£0.10= £20.10

I DONT KNOW IF THIS IS RIGHT but hope it helps :)
