Carlos has 4 1/2 gallons of paint. To paint a room that is 10 ft by 10 ft, he uses 34 gallon of paint. How many 10 ft by 10 ft rooms can Carlos paint? A. 4 1/3 rooms B. 4 2/3 rooms C. 6 rooms D. 9 rooms

C. 6 rooms

Step-by-step explanation:

I think you means he uses 3/4 gallon for 1 room.

This is a division problem. Divide the amount of paint he has by the amount he uses to paint one room.

(4 1/2)/(3/4) = (9/2)/(3/4) = 9/2 * 4/3 = 36/6 = 6

6 rooms

2 5/8 is the final answer! : )
