If 14 gallon of paint covers 112 of a wall, then how many quarts of paint are needed for the entire wall?

168 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Correct question;

If 14 gallon of paint covers 1/12 of a wall, then how many quarts of paint are needed for the entire wall?

If 14 gallon of paint covers 112 of a wall, this can be expressed as;

14 gallons = 1/12 of the wall

x gallons = entire wall (1 wall)

Cross multiply

1/12 * x = 14

x/12 = 14

Multiply both sides by 12

x/12 * 12 = 14*12

x = 168 gallons

Hence 168galons of paints are needed for the entire wall
