Answer 1

Answer: There will be 11 gallons of paint to paint the inside of the barn

Step-by-step explanation:

(19 + x) + x =107 quarts.

Answer 2

Answer:

22 gallons of paint

Step-by-step explanation:

Keep in mind, there are approximately 4 quarts in a gallon.

To find how many quarts are only to be used inside, you can find the difference of 107 and 19.

Result should be 88 quarts.

Then divide that by 4 and you'll end up with 22 gallons.

107-19=88

88/4=22
