, A swimming pool will be 30' wide by 100' long, being a total of 4' deep throughout. Each
wall of the pool (plus the bottom) must be covered by one coat of paint and two coats of
waterproof lacquer. A gallon of paint covers 80 square feet and costs $22. A gallon of
lacquer covers 25 square feet and costs $35.
Determine
*how many gallons of paint and lacquer will be required to coat the pool, using the
above specifications, and
*how much will be spent on the paint and lacquer. - ANSWERSHeight x width 4*30,
Height x length 4*100, Length x width 100*30
120, 400, 3000
120, 400
240 sq.ft + 800 sq.ft + 3000 sq.ft = 4,040 sq.ft
A gallon of paint covers 80 sq. ft. So divide 80 into 4,040 sq. ft. to find that you will need
50.5 cans of paint or 51 cans of paint. The cost of one coat of paint will be 51 cans of
paint times $22 per can to reach the cost of $1,122.
You will then need to divide 25 into 4,040 sq. ft. to find that you will need 161.6 cans
(this number must then be multiplied by two, because the pool needs to have two coats
of waterproof lacquer). So, you will need 324 cans of lacquer at $35 per can. The total
amount of lacquer will be $11,340. The final step is to add $11,340 to $1,122 to get a
total of $12,462.
