Question

a painter Paints 240 square feet of a wall. If this is 48% of the total world surface what is the area of the wall in square feet

Answer 1

Let the total wall surface area = x sq. ft

area of wall in sq. ft = 48% of x
= 48/100 × x
= 48x/100

area painted = 240 sq. ft
48x/100 = 240
x = 240 × 100 / 48
= 500 sq. ft

Answer 2

Answer:

500sq.ft
