Find the quotient 2• 6feet 8inches

the given 6 = w/p is equivalent to 6p = w, where w is the total area of the walls and p is the area covered by a single can of paint.

knowing that 6 cans of paint will be needed, 6p = w becomes 6(6) = w = 36.   this tells us that the total area to be painted is 36 square units.

first 15 divide by 2 = 7.5

100 divided by 7.5 is 13.

15 / 2 = 7.5

100 / 7.5 = 13.
