Answer:

1 gallon of paint can cover 60 square feet of wall.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that 2 1/2 gallon of paint can cover 150 square feet of wall.

We need to find the the number of square feet that 1 gallon of paint can cover.

In order to find the number of number of square feet that 1 gallon of paint can cover, we just need to divide 150 square feet by 2 1/2 gallon.

2 1/2 gallon in decimal form could be written as 2.5 gallons.

Dividing 150 square feet by 2.5 gallon, we get

[tex]\frac{150}{2.5}=60[/tex]

Therefore, 1 gallon of paint can cover 60 square feet of wall.
