Answer:
Part A: 512 ft²
Part B: 3 cans
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A:
We can divide the shape into 2 areas or rectangles.
The top rectangle's area: 20 x 12 =240
The bottom: 34 x 8 = 272
add these 2 up, 240 +272, and you get 512, the area of this figure.
Part B:
We have to divide the number of feet covered by the area:
512/200 = 2.56
However, we half to round up, cause we cant buy part of a can, we have to buy a whole one.
So, we get 3 cans.
