Question

One gallon of paint (volume = 3.79 10-3 m3) covers an area of 17.8 m2. What is the thickness of the fresh paint on the wall?

Answer 1

0.2129 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given volume of the paint = 1 gallon
`=3.79* 10^(-3)m^3`

Area that covers the paint
`=17.8 m^2`

We have to find the thickness of the fresh paint

So
`thickness=(volume)/(area)=(3.79* 10^(-3))/(17.8)=0.2129* 10^(-3)m=0.2129mm`

So the thickness of fresh paint on the wall is 0.2129 mm
