A painter uses 1.2 liters of the paint to cover 1m2 of the wall. How many square meters he can cover with 6.6 liters of paint?

12)/1.2=120/12=10m^2

4.8/1.2=48/12=4m^2

6.6/1.2=66/12=11/2=5.5m^2

this is another way you can do it

1. 12/1.2 times as much paint, so 12/1.2 times as much area.

2. 6.6/1.2 times as much paint, so 6.6/1.2 times as much area.

3. 4.8/1.2 times as much paint, so 4.8/1.2 times as much area.

x/3-10=8
