A person can paint 2.5 ft2 of a wall in 5 minutes.
Time available = 6 hours
Formula used:
Area painted per minute = person can paint / given time
Total area painted = Area painted per minute × Total minutes available
Calculation:
Area painted per minute = 2.5 / 5 = 0.5
Total minutes available = 6 × 60 = 360 minutes
⇒ Total area painted = 0.5 ft2/min × 360 min
⇒ Total area painted = 180 ft2
∴ The correct answer is option (4).
