Answer:
number of paints needed is approximately 10 cans
Step-by-step explanation:
if the pad is 50 feet across that is the diameter of the circular pad is 50 feet.
therefore to get the cans of paints needed we need to first find the area of the circular pad which is :
area of a circle = π[tex]r^{2}[/tex]
diameter = 50, radius = 50 / 2 = 25
area = 22/7 * [tex]25^{2}[/tex] = 1964.29 ft squared
where each paint covers 200ft squared
therefore to get the number of paints needed we will divide
1964.29 / 200 = 9.82 ≅ 10
