You can paint 75 square feet of a surface every 45 minutes. Determine how long it takes you to paint a wall with the given dimensions. 8 ft $\times$ 5 ft

24 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The Dimensions of the wall are given as:

8ft × 5ft = 40ft² or 40 square feet

We are told that: You can paint 75 square feet of a surface every 45 minutes.

Hence:

75 ft² = 45 minutes

40 ft² = x minutes

Cross Multiply

75 ft² × x = 40 ft² × 45 minutes

x = 40 ft² × 45 minutes/75 ft²

x = 24 minutes

Therefore, It will takes you 24 minutes to paint a wall with dimensions 8ft × 5 ft
