Answer 1

You need 22.5 cans of paint to paint 10 walls with 3 layers.

Explanation:

`(3)/(2*2)` = 0.75 (Represents how many cans of paint it takes to paint 1 wall with 1 layer)

0.75 * 10 * 3 = 7.5 * 3 = 22.5 (The number of paint needed for 1 wall with 1 layer multiplied by 10 walls with 3 layers to get the total amount of paint needed)

Answer 2

22.5 cans of paint

Explanation:

`n=3*10*(3)/(2*2) =30*(3)/(4) =22.5 cans`
