5 feet of wall should be on each side of the painting.

Explanation:

Given that a 3 foot wide painting should be centered on 13 foot wide wall, to determine how many feet should be on each side of the painting, the following calculations must be performed:

(13 - 3) / 2 = X

10/2 = X

5 = X

Therefore, 5 feet of wall should be on each side of the painting.
