Answer:
£48
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of walls = area of four rectangular walls + area of two triangular shape at front and back
Area of a rectangular wall = l *w = 8 * 4 = 32 m²
Area of 4 rectangular walls = 4 *32 = 128 m²
Triangle:
Base = 6m
height = h = 7 - 4 = 3 m
Area of triangle = (1/2)*b*h
[tex]= \dfrac{1}{2}*6*3 = 3*3 = 9 \ m^{2}[/tex]
Area of 2 triangles = 2*9 = 18 m²
Area of four walls = 128 + 18 = 146 m²
Number of paint tins required = 146 ÷ 25 = 5.84 = 6
6 tins are required.
Cost of 6 tins = 8 * 6 = £48
