You had to take 1500-200 and I will get you 1300 then take 1300÷29.98 and that will get you 533 you take 533 and divided by 49 and that will be 22.7

The maximum number of square feet Ron can paint if he stays within budget when he buys the paint and supplies is 22.7.

Since the remaining would be

= $1,500 - $200

= $1,300

Now per unit cost should be like

= [tex]1,300 \div 29.98[/tex]

= 533

Now then the maximum no of squares should be

[tex]= 533 \div 49[/tex]

= 22.7

Hence, The maximum number of square feet Ron can paint if he stays within budget when he buys the paint and supplies is 22.7.
